railroad.wikisort.org - StationStanford station is a Caltrain station in Palo Alto, California, near the stadium on the Stanford University campus.[2] It is not a regular stop; instead, it is only in service for Stanford football home games and other large events at the stadium.[3][4] The usual stop for the university is the Palo Alto station. The station does not have ticket vending machines; however, when in use, Caltrain staff will be present with handheld Clipper card readers so people can tag on and off.[5]
