What is the Caltrain GO Pass?
The Caltrain GO Pass offers unlimited rides on Caltrain for a full calendar year for a low price of $79.50 per employee, with every eligible employee required to participate. Employees benefit because they are provided with a great commute alternative that won’t result in any additional taxes.
