Tri-Rail To Operate Late Night Trains For 'Fins Fans On Halloween
MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Headed to the Dolphins game on Halloween night? Don't be frightened about getting a ride home, Tri-Rail will operate late night trains on Thursday, October 31, 2013 to accommodate fans attending the Dolphins game on Halloween.
Northbound trains will depart the Golden Glades Station one hour and one and half hours after the completion of the game.
A special southbound train will depart one hour after the end of the game, also from the Golden Glades Station.
Free shuttle buses to the game will run from the Golden Glades Station to Sun Life Stadium between 5:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.
Shuttle buses from the stadium to the Golden Glades Station will begin running at 10:00 p.m. The last shuttle bus will depart Sun Life Stadium one hour following the end of the game. Metrorail trains will run later to coordinate with the last southbound Tri-Rail train. Regular weekday zoned fares will apply.
The regional train system can accommodate passengers from Palm Beach and Broward counties, as well as travelers from the south end of Miami-Dade County, who can connect by using the northbound 'Green Line' Metrorail service to get to Tri-Rail.
Providing service to games is not new to Tri-Rail. In 2009, approximately 800 people rode the train to attend the Pro Bowl and the following weekend, almost 2,000 ticket holders rode Tri-Rail to attend the Super Bowl. In the past, Tri-Rail has operated special service to the Orange Bowl.
