San José Grand Prix
Race fans heading to the
Grand Prix in
San Jose July 27-29 can leave the driving
to Caltrain. Caltrain offers frequent regular
service for
Friday’s activities and regular
hourly service on
weekends. The last weekend
train departs San Jose at 10:30 p.m.
Caltrain will deliver fans to the San Jose
Diridon station, where they can connect with
VTA light rail for a short trip to the
downtown race course.
Tickets
Caltrain is a Proof-of-Payment system,
requiring all passengers to have valid
fare media before boarding the train. Caltrain
sells One-way, Day Pass and 10-ride tickets
through machines at all stations.
The 10-ride ticket is a great bargain
for families and groups of friends heading
to the race because one ticket may be used
by all members of the traveling party,
providing they don't exceed the 10-ride
limit. Passengers are required to validate
all 10-ride tickets before boarding.
Monthly pass holders ride free through
all zones on weekends, and those with a
two-zone or greater monthly pass will
receive a local fare credit on VTA buses
and light rail.
Weekend Reminders
-
A shuttle bus operates between the
Tamien and San Jose Diridon stations on
the weekends only. Caltrain fare policies apply.
