Description:

Great news for Ravens fans traveling to Sunday's AFC Championship game! MARC Train will operate an additional southbound departure from Penn Station to Washington. Train 497, which normally operates on Saturday only, will depart Penn Station on Sunday at 7:30pm making all scheduled stops to Washington. There will be no additional charge to ride this train - all regular MARC one way, weekly, and monthly tickets will be honored.

To get to the game, MARC Train 482 departs Washington Union Station at 12:30pm, making all scheduled stops to Penn Station, arriving at 1:28pm - in plenty of time for kickoff. Want to get there a little earlier and enjoy the atmosphere and tailgates? MARC Train 478 departs Union Station at 10:25am, arriving at 11:28am. Parking is free at Bowie State University, Odenton, and Halethorpe stations (there is a charge for Washington Union Station, New Carrollton and BWI).

How to get from Penn Station to the stadium complex:

--Walk from Penn Station to Mt. Royal/MICA Light Rail stop and ride Light Rail to Hamburg Street

--Ride the 51 or City Link Green bus from Penn Station to the Inner Harbor then walk to the stadium

--Returning after the game, beginning at 5:00 p.m. through 7:00 p.m. MARC Penn Station shuttle buses will pick up passengers at the intersection of Pratt and Howard Streets and take them directly to Penn Station. The last MARC train leaves Penn Station at 7:30 p.m. so allow plenty of time to exit the stadium, board the shuttle bus, and arrive at Penn Station.

If you plan to board MARC at New Carrollton, please note that the Amtrak waiting room is closed on the weekend and the MARC ticket machine is not accessible. Passengers boarding at New Carrollton on the weekends must have a ticket, cash to purchase a ticket from the Conductor, or use the MTA CharmPass to purchase tickets to ride.

Supplemental MTA Commuter Bus options are also available, read the Commuter Bus service advisory here: www.mta.maryland.gov/service-alerts/17120
