The discount is valid for travel to and from the stations below:

"The promotional offer is part of our Hug the Coast campaign, which celebrates everything that makes Southern California great from its beautiful beaches and vibrant downtowns to the diverse and unique communities that we serve,” said Bryan MacDonald, chairman of the Los Angeles – San Diego – San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor Agency.

The agency also said the promotion is designed to encourage travel to places in Southern California recently impacted by natural disasters.
