message: I have not corrected the error in the date of abandonment because I do not have the precise information. Perhaps the author meant that passenger service ceased in the 1950s. There was still freight service to Folsom when we moved here in 1986 and for some time thereafter. In the Placerville article, it mentions that the Camino, Placerville and Lake Tahoe Railroad operated until June of 1986. It connected to the Southern Pacific branch line that ran through Folsom, so that line would have been operational in 1986. Jim 00:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur with this; however, where part of the confusion about dates exist due to one railroad line closing in the 1860s and the turn-over of the Sacramento Valley Railroad from that organization to Folsom prison and its operation afterwards. The most definite articles read that the  turntable ceased operation in the 1910s. Please see:
*Timeline - 1910 entry.
*Loomis-Folsom railway found - 1860s end of a shortline. 
*The Folsom Turntables - end of Folsom turntables in 1913 (but not the end of freight service in the area as indicated in the prior post). I recommend including some of these URLs into this article.  Ronbo76 17:47, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am still not satisfied with the imprecision of the date, but have corrected the article to change "1950s" to "1980s", not only due to the aforementioned articles (the Camino, Placerville and Lake Tahoe Railroad article now gives a specific date that scrapping commenced), but because of the external website article now referenced. I personally observed items being delivered by rail to the Folsom freight platform in 1986; however due to "original research" prohibition I am relying on the references mentioned.

message: Folsom is not losing population 51k in 00 to 45 k in 06. Can someone check this. I can later but not now. Alamar2001 02:57, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Population

message: I don't think any of the people (other than Camejo) are really famous, other than locally. Teak the Kiwi 04:00, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Famous People' 

message: Nowhere near a B class since:
*Not useful to all readers since it lacks breadth (eg no data on infrastructure, transportation, natural features, etc.)
*Very light in hard references
*POV shows with words like "famous" and "unfortunately"
Keep working on it. Feralfeline 04:52, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Looking from underside, there appears to be a short concrete panel, wherein another support column might seem appropriate for long western end; compare to eastern end.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.72.148.169 (talk) 20:37, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
