How to Ride Metrolink

Stations, schedules, and how to buy tickets

1. Find Your Station

Study our colorful system map and figure out your departure and destination points. Check the schedules below. This is much simpler than math class and certainly more fun.

2. Be Fashionably On Time

Arrive at the station at least 20 minutes before your train departs. Boarding a moving train only works in the movies.

3. Buy Your Pass, Smile Childishly

Download the Metrolink Mobile Ticketing App. Or use any ticket vending machine (TVM) at any Metrolink station with weekend service to spend the best $10 ever.

4. Hop On, Log In, Tune Out

Step onto the train that'll change your weekend. Sink into a seat, charge up your device, and let the adventure begin.

5. Depart. Go forth and explore.

Metrolink is just the start and finish of your adventure; what you discover in between will make this a weekend you'll never forget.
