EMY-SFC Fare Increase

Emeryville – San Francisco Fare Increase

Effective January 1, 2024, there will be a fare increase for Capitol Corridor’s Emeryville (EMY) – San Francisco (SFC) connecting bus service for multi-ride tickets which include 10-ride tickets and monthly ride tickets. Single tickets (one-way and roundtrip) will not be affected.

Multiple factors informed the decision to implement this fare increase, including the rise of labor and fuel costs.

We strive to keep our bus connection fares competitive with other services that cross the bay, such as BART and AC Transit. We are also actively seeking ways to improve the SF connecting bus service.

We appreciate your understanding.


12/10 49er Game

Take the Train to the Game!

Take the train to the San Francisco 49ers game this Sunday, December 10.  Avoid the traffic and parking hassles and enjoy a snack on the onboard Café Car.

You can find more info here: 49ers Service – Capitol Corridor.


One Ticket One Seat

“One Ticket One Seat” Policy

As our ridership grows again post-pandemic, some of our popular trains have become more crowded. We’d like to reminder our riders of our “One Ticket, One Seat” policy. This means that the ticket you purchase entitles you to use only one seat; you may not use additional seats to store your personal belongings or as added leg room. By adhering to this policy, you are helping to ensure that everyone has a comfortable and safe ride on Capitol Corridor.

We thank you in advance for your cooperation!
