BART Plans Longer Trains for World Series

Bay Area Rapid Transit officials said they will, if needed, add extra trains to carry Giants fans to World Series games in San Francisco.

From a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) announcement:

BART is on deck to get thousands of Giants fans to AT&T Park for the first 2012 World Series game on Wednesday, Oct. 24.

BART will run longer trains, operate additional event trains as necessary and have additional staff on hand to help customers who need assistance.

Travel Tips

BART wants everyone to have fun and get to the game on time. New riders need to know that everyone who rides BART needs a BART ticket or Clipper card to enter the system. Here are a few tips to avoid the crush at the ticket machines:

  • Load up your Clipper card with extra value.
  • Or, if buying a BART ticket, purchase a round trip ticket at the station where you begin your trip
  • Plan your trip by using the BART QuickPlanner
