Romeo and Juliet take to the big screen at Oracle Park on Saturday, September 21, and Caltrain will provide special service to accommodate everyone who wishes to enjoy the works of the Bard while eating garlic fries.
Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and the simulcast of the performance at the War Memorial Opera House begins at 7:30 p.m. Caltrain will run two extra pre-performance local trains that will depart San Jose Diridon Station at 3:15 p.m. and 5:08 p.m. The 613 will make all local weekend stops while the 619 will run express service to the San Francisco Station.
Caltrain will also run two post-performance trains that depart San Francisco approximately 15 and 25 minutes after the show, or when full. These trains will provide express southbound service to the Millbrae Station before making all weekend local stops to San Jose Diridon.

About Caltrain: Owned and operated by the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board, Caltrain provides commuter rail service from San Francisco to San Jose, with limited commute service to Gilroy. While the Joint Powers Board assumed operating responsibilities for the service in 1992, the railroad has provided the community with more than 150 years of continuous passenger service. Planning for the next 150 years of Peninsula rail service, Caltrain is on pace to electrify the corridor, reduce diesel emissions by 97 percent by 2040 and add more service to more stations.
