Catch Caltrain to Cardinal’s Games Stanford Stadium

Stanford football fans can score a transit touchdown by taking Caltrain to home games at the new Stanford Stadium. Caltrain will serve the stadium station for all home games this season, starting with the game against the U.S. Naval Academy on Saturday, Sept. 16, at 7 p.m.

Located above Embarcadero Road at Alma Street, Caltrain’s Stanford Stadium Station is a short walk from the stadium.

Caltrain has made Stanford part of its game plan for all five home games; trains will begin stopping at the stadium train station approximately two hours before kickoff, until approximately four hours after the game begins. There will be no extra service to the station, so fans are urged to check the train schedule and plan their departure accordingly. All Saturday trains serve the Palo Alto station, which is located one-half mile north of the stadium station.

Since there are no ticket vending machines at the Stanford station, riders are advised to purchase a Caltrain Day Pass at their departure station before boarding the train to go to the game.

Kickoff times are subject to change due to potential television coverage. For additional information about train service and fares, call Caltrain at 1.800.660.4287 (TTY 650.508.6448).
