Starting the weekend of July 7, Metrolink will add four round-trip trains on the Orange County line between Los Angeles Union Station and Oceanside on the weekends. Riders from across Southern California will be able to take advantage of the $10 Weekend Pass to visit destinations such as Disneyland and the beaches.

Also on July 7, Metrolink's weekend seasonal beach trains will begin operating between Oceanside and San Bernardino. This year the service will continue indefinitely rather than stopping in October.

A 7 percent system-wide fare increase will go into effect July 1. Monthly pass holders will see the new fares when they purchase their July passes beginning June 15.

The fare increases vary depending on where passengers are traveling and the type of ticket.
