History
The Central Pacific Railroad as built through Modesto in 1870, and was taken over by the Southern Pacific in 1884. In 1915, the Southern Pacific Railroad built a new Mission Revival station. It was used until 1971, when Amtrak took over intercity passenger service.[1] When Amtak restored service to Modesto with the San Joaquin in 1974, the former Santa Fe station in Riverbank was used instead. (It was replaced with the modern Modesto station in 1999).[1]
The depot was restored in 1993 as a bus terminal. Rail service is expected to be restored in 2023 with the Altamont Corridor Express extension to Ceres.[2]
gollark: (and you would also want to test the regular behavior, too)
gollark: For example, just adding two numbers seems simple, but it isn't really. What if (in a weakly typed language), one is an integer and one is a floating-point number? What if one is infinity? What about floating point inaccuracy issues (if you are using those)? What about integer overflow (or underflow)?
gollark: You want to test the weird edge cases your function might have in case changing it somehow makes it do the wrong thing.

gollark: One would hope so. If I cared about ordering of data and stuff I would just use SQLite or something myself.
