About Folsom

Folsom is a city located in Sacramento County, California. It is known for its rich history and connection to the California Gold Rush. Folsom was founded in 1855 and quickly became a bustling mining town. The city's name is derived from Joseph Libbey Folsom, a key figure in the development of the town and the man who purchased the land where the city now stands. Folsom is perhaps most famous for its historic Folsom Prison, which was built in 1880 and is still in operation today. The prison gained worldwide recognition through the song "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash.

Folsom has a strong connection to freight transportation. The city is home to the Folsom Rail Yard, a historic rail yard that was once a major hub for freight and passenger trains. The rail yard played a crucial role in the transportation of goods and people during the early days of Folsom's development. Today, the rail yard is no longer in operation, but it serves as a reminder of the city's transportation history. Folsom is also located near major highways and has a well-developed transportation infrastructure, making it an ideal location for businesses involved in freight transportation.
