Metro Transit to Twins fans: Be patient boarding light rail on Thursday April 7, 2021 — 6:37pm Text size Copy shortlink: Twins fans taking light rail home Thursday from Target Field following the season opener are being asked to be patient, as boarding on each train remains limited due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Starting Monday, Metro Transit expanded the number of passengers on each light-rail car to 33, with a maximum of 99 riders on a three-car Blue or Green Line train. That's half the riders allowed on the trains before the pandemic, but double the limit under recent COVID restrictions. Passengers are still expected to wear masks aboard public transit.
