Monmouth Park and NJ Transit have combined forces in an effort to encourage fans to use public transportation to the racetrack during Breeders' Cup Week, Oct. 24-27.

NJ Transit has scheduled expanded service to the racetrack for Breeders' Cup Week. The special service on the North Jersey Coast Line includes hourly departures and arrivals at the Monmouth Park train station all four days. On Saturday, Oct. 27, NJ Transit will operate two additional trains during the morning from New York to Monmouth Park, and two additional trains after the races from Monmouth to New York.

There are five passes available. The four-day pass, which is valid on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of Breeders' Cup Week, is priced at $50. The three-day pass, good Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, is $40, and the two-day pass for Friday and Saturday, is $30.

Also available is a one-day pass for Friday, and a one-day pass for Saturday, each priced at $20.

Racing fans from outside the United States must email Sophia Mangalee in the Monmouth Park Marketing Department to purchase NJ Transit passes. The email address is smangalee@njsea.com.

The Monmouth Park station on NJ Transit's North Jersey Coast Line is located on Port Au Peck Avenue. A new gate into the racetrack will be available across the street from the train station.
