NOTES:

Every Highway 17 Express trip is shown, but with only these four timepoints. On weekends, the last stop is the San Jose Diridon Station, which also serves Amtrak, San Jose Light Rail (route 902), and the weekday ACE (Altamont Commuter Express) trains. On weekdays, the Highway 17 Express continues to downtown San Jose and San Jose State University—another 8 minutes. Each bus can accommodate three bicycles in its front rack.
Every Caltrain trip is shown, but with only these four timepoints. Caltrain accommodates bicycles—policies are described here.
SOQ: Soquel Park and Ride; SC: Santa Cruz Metro Center; SV: Scotts Valley Transit Center; SJ: San Jose Diridon Station; SCl: Santa Clara Caltrain Station; Mill: Millbrae Caltrain & BART Station; SF: San Francisco Caltrain Station.
The schedules and fares are current as of September 15, 2011 (Highway 17 Express) and January 1, 2011 (Caltrain), and are expected to be valid through at least April, 2012. Although we try to avoid errors, we do not guarantee that these timetables are error-free. For complete current schedules, see Caltrain, and Highway 17 Express.
Southbound Caltrains are ordered according to their arrival times in San Jose, so as to clarify connections to the Highway 17 Express buses.
Local Caltrains (train numbers in the 100s) take about an hour and a half between San Francisco and San Jose.
Caltrains highlighted in yellow (train numbers in the 200s) are “limited service” trains, which therefore take less than an hour and a half to travel from San Francisco to San Jose. Caltrains highlighted in green are also “limited service” trains, but involve a timed six-minute transfer at Redwood City.
Caltrains highlighted in pink (train numbers in the 300s) are “baby bullet” trains, which take approximately one hour between San Francisco and San Jose.
Weekend Caltrains highlighted in aqua are Saturday Only trips.

Fares From/To Santa Cruz
To/From	Regular	Senior
San Jose	$5.00¹	$2.50¹
Santa Clara/SJC²	$7.75³	$3.75³
Millbrae	$11.75	$5.75
SFO⁴	$15.75	$9.75
San Francisco	$13.75	$6.75

For total fares between Santa Cruz and points north, see the table at the right. Seniors are 62 or over on the Highway 17 Express, 65 or over on Caltrain. Footnotes are as follows:
¹ Pay the bus driver for the Highway 17 Express fare. Exact change is required.
² SJC is the San Jose Airport. The free “Airport Flyer” leaves Santa Clara every 15 minutes for the 12-minute ride to SJC. See how to get to San Jose Airport for alternative routes.
³ Caltrain tickets are most easily obtained from the machines on the station platforms. These machines accept credit cards and also make change.
⁴ SFO is the San Francisco Airport. BART trains leave Millbrae every 15 minutes (20 minutes on weekends) and take 12 minutes to the airport, via a timed-transfer at the San Bruno station. The fare (from the machine) is $4.00. For more information on fares, see Caltrain fares, Santa Cruz Metro fares, and BART fares
