Metrolink and Amtrak Pacific Surfliner Partner for Dodgers-Angels Games and Swallows Day Parade Service

FREEWAY_SERIES_23_HAPPENINGS

LOS ANGELES – Metrolink has partnered with the LOSSAN Rail Corridor Agency,  which manages Amtrak Pacific Surfliner, to provide seamless, round-trip train service to and from the upcoming Swallows Day Parade in San Juan Capistrano, as well as three preseason baseball games between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

For the Swallows Day Parade on Saturday, March 25, and the Angels versus Dodgers game at Dodger Stadium on Sunday, March 26, riders with either a valid Metrolink or Amtrak Pacific Surfliner ticket may board either train service between Los Angeles and San Juan Capistrano, at no extra charge.

For the two Dodgers versus Angels games at Angel Stadium on Monday, March 27, and on Tuesday, March 28, Metrolink riders returning from the games may use their Metrolink ticket to ride Amtrak Pacific Surfliner trains 591 or 595. Currently, the Metrolink Orange County Line schedule offers multiple options to get riders to each game; however, there is no Metrolink service for return travel.

“Together, two of our regional passenger train operators are delivering convenience and flexibility to SoCal residents,” Metrolink CEO Darren Kettle said. “Regardless of which team fans are rooting for on the ball field, everyone wins with this collaboration. I look forward to working with the Pacific Surfliner more so we can continue offering seamless passenger rail service to riders across the region.”
