Caltrain riders can take special ‘Billie Car’ to Billie Eilish concert in San Jose
Nov 26, 2024
(KRON) -- Grammy-winning artist Billie Eilish is coming to San Jose next month for her Bay Area stop of her "Hit Me Hard and Soft" world tour. Eilish is headling two sold-out shows at the SAP Center on Dec. 10 and 11.
If you are attending the first show and coming from San Francisco/Peninsula, Billie Eilish fans might want to take Caltrain -- for other reasons than avoiding the usual weekday rush hour traffic.
Caltrain will run a special "Billie Car" train that is themed after the 22-year-old music star, the public transit agency announced Tuesday. There will be official Billie Eilish prizes and Caltrain merchandise onboard.
The "Billie Car" is only running once on Dec. 10 and is Train No. 522 going southbound, Caltrain said. Here are the departure times for the one-time "Billie Car."
