Easy Ticket Purchasing:
Caltrain is making it easy for customers to get a ticket for both rail systems by selling a joint Caltrain/VTA Day Pass through its station ticket machines.

The new joint ticket must be purchased the day of travel to be valid. Caltrain is a proof-of-payment system, and tickets must be purchased before boarding the train. Those without a valid ticket, including Clipper tag, are subject to a citation and fine. Caltrain reminds fans to drink responsibly and to remember that alcohol is not allowed on game-day trains beginning at 9 p.m. VTA doesn’t allow food or beverages on its light rail vehicles and buses.

Four extra trains will run from Alum Rock and Santa Teresa and three extra trains from Diridon Station every half-hour. Riders will not be able to use ticket machines on platforms between Mountain View and Great America, so purchase tickets ahead of time.
