Robert J. Cabral Station, otherwise known as the Stockton – Downtown Station or Stockton ACE Station, is a railway station in Stockton, California. The historic station building was built by the Southern Pacific Railroad and was named in 2003 after the late Robert J. Cabral, a San Joaquin County supervisor instrumental in the creation of the Altamont Commuter Express (ACE).[2]

The station is the terminus for the ACE train line to San Jose Diridon Station and is also served by Amtrak trains between Sacramento and Bakersfield. Amtrak trains between Oakland and Bakersfield do not pass this station (SKT), instead using the Stockton - San Joaquin Street Station (SKN). The station exterior was updated in early 2010 with improvements to the parking lot and landscaping, including added handicapped parking.

In FY2010 Robert J. Cabral Station was the 40th-busiest of Amtrak's 73 California stations, boarding or detraining an average of about 95 passengers daily.[3]

A dozen San Joaquin Regional Transit District feeder and commuter bus lines stop at or near the station.

Amtrak Thruway Bus line 6 to San Jose makes 6 daily trips each way and line 34 makes two daily trips, both stop at the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station.[4][5]
