1. Temporary motorcoach service change on Sunday
**********************************************************************
Due to street closures for the Nike Women’s Marathon, motorcoach
service to the Pier 39 stop in San Francisco will be unavailable on
Sunday, October 21st until 11:00am. Passengers travelling to this
stop during this time should plan to off-board at the SF Ferry
Building or Embarcadero locations and make alternate arrangements to
reach their destination. Service is scheduled to resume after
11:00am.

2. Take the train to Raiders games
**********************************************************************
Take the train to select Raiders games and save 25%! Visit a local
Raiders Image store to pick up a Capitol Corridor rack card with
details on how to save on your train trip. Ditch the traffic and
parking hassles, and hope aboard Capitol Corridor for a comfortable
and convenient ride – straight to McAfee Coliseum. The 25% discount
is good for the following game days:
October 21 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
November 4 vs. Houston Texans
December 2 vs. Denver Broncos

3. Getting to Cal’s Memorial Stadium is easy
**********************************************************************
You shouldn’t have to suffer in traffic for your football devotion —
take Capitol Corridor & BART instead! Take Capitol Corridor to the
Richmond station, and transfer to BART by walking or taking the
elevator, downstairs. (You can purchase discounted BART tickets in the
Café Car.) BART will drop you off at the Downtown Berkeley station.
The stadium is an easy 10-minute walk through campus. Or, you can
catch a free shuttle that will take you to the stadium.
You can also take the train to the Berkeley station and transfer to AC
Transit. Hop on bus #51/51 Broadway and get off at the University &
Shattuck stop. Don’t forget to ask the conductor for two free transit
transfers, which will allow you to ride on AC Transit to the game and
back to the station for free.
