Special Caltrain Service for Fourth of July

Caltrain will operate on a Sunday schedule for the Fourth of July holiday, but extra trains will be added to accommodate people heading to the fireworks show in San Francisco.

In addition to the regular 20 trains operating on a holiday schedule, two special trains will depart Caltrain's San Jose Diridon Station, the first at 3:11 p.m. and the second at 5:11 p.m. The seven-car trains will make all weekend local stops and will arrive in San Francisco, respectively, at 4:47 p.m. and at 6:47 p.m.

After the fireworks show on the San Francisco waterfront, trains will leave The City when full. One of the post-fireworks trains will operate as an express to San Carlos, and then make local stops on the way to San Jose.

The San Francisco Municipal Railway will run shuttles between Caltrain's terminal at Fourth and King streets and Pier 39. The last southbound Caltrain should depart San Francisco at 11:59 p.m., though it could be delayed based on traffic conditions for the Muni shuttles.

Caltrain will not operate south of Tamien station in San Jose all day on the Fourth.
