Catch a Break with Caltrain to Sharks Games at the Tank

Score a goal by taking Caltrain to all Sharks home games at HP Pavilion, rather than driving or getting stuck in traffic. The Sharks’ preseason home opener is against the Anaheim Ducks on Friday, Sept. 21, at 7:30 p.m.

With its San Jose terminal located across the street from the hockey arena, Caltrain service makes it easy to avoid the hassle and expense of driving and parking. A number of trains arrive from San Francisco and the Peninsula in time for the face-off. The last weekday and Saturday northbound train departs the San Jose station at 10:30 p.m. or up to 15 minutes after the game ends, whichever is later. The train makes all regular local stops. Trains stop at the Broadway and Atherton stations on weekends only.

Caltrain is a Proof-of-Payment system and requires passengers to purchase tickets before boarding. Ticket options include: One-way, Day Pass or 10-ride tickets. Passengers are required to validate all 10-ride tickets before boarding. Monthly Pass holders ride free through all zones on weekends.

Information about Caltrain hockey service is available HERE or in a new brochure, which will soon be onboard trains. Riders also can request a copy by calling Caltrain’s Customer Service Center at 1.800.660.4287, or for additional information about service and fares, visit www.caltrain.com.
