Atherton Station is a weekend-only Caltrain station located in Atherton, California. It serves all 32 and 28 weekend Caltrains and does not serve weekday trains. Shuttle service to Redwood City was previously provided, however, due to low ridership, it was discontinued on July 1, 2007.[1]

[edit] Station amenities

  • Caltrain ticket machines
  • 10-Ride ticket validators

[edit] Hold-out rule

Because of the narrow center platform, a hold-out rule had been instituted at this station, allowing only one train to enter the station at a time.
