Former services

Orland was a Southern Pacific Railway station in Orland, California. The Southern Pacific had built the line out from Colusa County by 1880 when the railroad assumed management of the town.^[1] The Klamath served the station as late as 1954, and ran between Portland and Oakland,^[2] but the stop did not appear in the 1966 timetables. After Amtrak took over nationwide passenger operations, the state lobbied the company in 1974 to add the station as a stop on the Coast Starlight route,^[3] running daily from Los Angeles to Seattle. While the station saw service for a time,^[4] it was bypassed in 1982.^[5] The station building was subsequently moved to Glenn County Fairgrounds.^[6]
