There are two Muni Metro platforms located outside the Caltrain station. N Judah trains stop at the platform on the King Street median (closer to the Caltrain station) and T Third Street trains stop at the platform in the middle of 4th Street south of King Street (see photo). Pay fare on the vehicle with cash or Clipper card when boarding.

Riders heading to Downtown SF can board either the T or the N train. An overhead electronic sign located by the Caltrain station (on King Street) shows the real-time departure information for both lines so that riders can decide which platform to go.
