Caltrain Adds After-Show Train For Rolling Stones Concertgoers

SAN MATEO COUNTY, CA — Travel options just got easier for Peninsula residents heading to The Rolling Stones' "No Filter Tour" Sunday Aug. 18 at 7:30 p.m. at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara.

In addition to its regular Sunday schedule, Caltrain will operate one special northbound train departing the Mountain View Station approximately 75 minutes after the concert, or when full, making all weekend local stops to San Francisco, the agency said.

The service will be coordinated with VTA light rail.

On the way to the show, concert attendees can take Caltrain to Mountain View Station and transfer to VTA light rail for its service to and from the stadium.

Caltrain is a proof-of-payment system. Tickets aren’t sold onboard trains but can be purchased at station ticket machines. In order to avoid the long lines that often accompany major events, passengers are encouraged to buy a Day Pass or use the Caltrain Mobile ticketing app. Riders can also purchase a Joint Caltrain+VTA Day Pass on the mobile app or at a ticket machine, which will be valid until end of service.

As a reminder, open alcoholic beverages are prohibited on trains beginning at 9 p.m., the agency said. Food and beverage aren’t allowed on VTA.

Parking at Caltrain stations costs $5.50 for the day, and permits can be purchased at Caltrain station ticket machines. Paid parking rules are enforced throughout the day.
