How to take Caltrain
Before boarding the trains, buy your train ticket from a Caltrain ticket machine. Fares on Caltrain are determined by the number of fares zone you plan to travel.
Caltrain has one of the most generous onboard bicycle policies in the country. See Caltrain bicycle access for details.
Free shuttles are available at many suburban Caltrain stations to nearby employers.
Disabled access
Caltrain is accessible to people with disabilities at all stations except 22nd Street, South San Francisco, Broadway, Atherton, Stanford, and College Park stations. Riders who are unable to use stairs can board the train by waiting on the blue boarding assistance square painted on the platform (generally located near the middle-north end of the platform). Conductors will deploy the wheelchair lift.
Some stations have a mini-high platform located adjacent to the blue square. The platform provides level boarding onto low floor Bombardier trains. To board those trains, conductors will deploy a ramp to bridge the gap between the vehicle and the mini-high platform.
Disabled parking is free at Caltrain stations.
