The Martinez subdivision is a Union Pacific railway line which runs from Roseville, California to Oakland, California.[1] It is informally referred to as the Cal-P line, after the original California Pacific Railroad, who constructed the line from Sacramento to Suisun and Fairfield. (As such, the nickname may only apply to that segment.) The line is entirely double-tracked including bridges, and features extensive sidings.[1]
