Beginning on May 29, 2021, Metrolink will be offering round-trip service from Ventura County to Los Angeles for an Epic Family Summer Day Trip or Long Weekend Escape
Just in time for Memorial Day Weekend (and for the first time in Metrolink history) Metrolink will be introducing a new Saturday service schedule on our Ventura County Line.
Beginning May 29, residents and visitors of Eastern Ventura County and the San Fernando Valley will be able to easily dodge the steadily increasing traffic of the freeways and avoid parking fees to explore Southern California without having to stress about the inconveniences of driving. Simply enjoy a stress-free train travel into Los Angeles, with points in-between for a #MetrolinkDayTrip at stations like Northridge, Burbank, Glendale, DTLA and beyond.
It’s the perfect time to plan a SoCal escape, as the state continues to reopen and Metrolink offers a safe and convenient alternative to driving. Planning a train trip is easy, and with our itineraries and destinations at metrolinktrains.com/explore, riders can be prepared to conquer all of SoCal’s best attractions!

And it’s not just convenient — it’s also affordable to take Metrolink — with the Kids Ride Free weekends fare, families who are seeking a fun, safe and affordable way to plan a weekend getaway can explore destinations across Southern California for just $10 per adult, with kids (ages 17 and under) riding free. That’s just $20 for a family of eight to travel across SoCal and experience all the best spots this region has to offer.
Since Southern California is brimming with all kinds of kid-friendly outdoor experiences that are accessible via Metrolink, it’s easy to just hop on and hop off.
Plus, since taking the train is about the destination and the journey to get there, riders can create fond family memories aboard our safe, comfortable trains with no “are we there yet?” questions to worry about – there’s scenery perfect for window gazing, tables perfect for the kids’ coloring books, and enough space onboard for bikes, picnic baskets, surfboards.
Our trains have essentially anything families might need for a daytrip or an unforgettable Saturday adventure! Visit https://metrolinktrains.com/vc-saturdays for more details on Ventura County Saturday service including schedules and answers to frequently asked questions.
