(Chesterton, IN) - The South Shore Railroad commuter line will offer more seats for kids to ride free to help encourage families to travel together during summer break.

 

The Kids Ride Free program will include all trains from June 29 through July 3. 

 

The program allows up to three children ages 13 and under to ride free with a paying adult during weekday off-peak hours along with weekend and holiday trains.

 

“Whether it’s a day in downtown Chicago, a visit to the Indiana Dunes or a trip to South Bend, we want to make it easy for families to explore and create memories together,” said Amber Kettring, Manager of Customer Service and Communications for the railroad.

 

The promotion is part of the rail line’s ongoing effort to provide affordable, convenient and family-friendly transportation.
