Local know-how

Is Oakland worth it from Auburn?

Only when the fare or the schedule makes up for an extra hour and a half on the road compared with SMF. For many domestic trips, Sacramento is the better bet.

When Oakland does make sense, the drive is straightforward: I-80 the whole way to the Carquinez Bridge, then I-880.

Auburn is also a Capitol Corridor station, though only a few trains run from here each day; most leave from Sacramento.
