May 16, 9 p.m. to May 17, 12 p.m.: Buses replace trains between Tamien & San Jose Diridon. Plan ahead. Info: caltrain.com/status
Caltrain will be reducing its service to Tamien Station in San Jose on May 16-17 from 9 p.m. to noon in order to perform maintenance north of the station. Riders traveling north of San Jose Diridon Station should be unaffected by this change.
Caltrain encourages its riders whose commute will be affected, including Giants fans heading to Oracle Park on May 16, to check the schedule to ensure they can reach their destination on time. VTA will provide free bus service to shuttle passengers between San Jose Diridon and Tamien Stations.
On the evening of Friday, May 16, northbound trains 169 and 173 will originate at Diridon Station, as opposed to Tamien Station. Southbound trains 160, 164, 168, 172 and 176 will also terminate at Diridon Station. On the morning of Saturday, May 17, northbound trains 601, 605, 609, 613, 617 and 621 would originate at Diridon Station, while southbound trains 602, 606 and 610 would terminate at Diridon Station.
This will provide repair crews with an approximately 15-hour window in which to replace the affected infrastructure without having their work interrupted by trains passing through the construction area.
