Football fans are encouraged to ride the USC Football Express Train to and from the Los Angeles Coliseum for the Thurs., Oct. 10 game against the Arizona Wildcats that begins at 7:30 p.m.
OCTA, in partnership with Metrolink, is providing special train service to and from the Thursday night game. Because it’s a weekday game, the availability of parking will be limited as opposed to the normal Saturday games, and the start time will make traveling to the Coliseum difficult.
Fans can board the USC Football Express from Orange County Metrolink stations and take it to L.A. Union Station. From there, riders will have a free transfer to the Metro’s light rail lines and will arrive at the Coliseum within minutes, enjoying a hassle-free ride and saving time and money on traffic and parking.
“The USC Football Express is an ideal way for Orange County’s Trojan faithful to make it to the Coliseum and avoid sitting in L.A. rush-hour traffic,” said OCTA Vice Chairman Shawn Nelson, also the Fourth District Supervisor. “This also is a great opportunity for those who don’t regularly take public transit to experience how convenient it can be in Southern California.”
Riders can board the train headed northbound at any station between Oceanside and Norwalk and pay the regular Metrolink fare. The station locations and departure times are below.
