Western Pacific Passenger Depot is a former railway station in Sacramento, California, located at 19th and J Streets.[1] Opened in 1910 by the Western Pacific Railroad as part of the Feather River Route, the station would go on to serve the original California Zephyr until the service was discontinued in 1970.[2] The Old Spaghetti Factory opened in the old building in 1978.

The station building was designed by Willis Polk in the Mission Revival style.[3]
