Annual train will run service to event on Saturday, April 27

NASHVILLE – Wilson County Mayor and RTA Chair Randall Hutto is partnering with WeGo Public Transit to transport runners and supporters to the St. Jude Rock ‘n Roll Marathon on April 27.

The train to the marathon is a collaborative effort between WeGo, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and Wilson County. All ticket proceeds will benefit St. Jude. RJ Corman is supporting the special event train as this year’s corporate sponsor.

Tickets cost $15 plus a $2 processing fee and may be purchased with a credit card through TicketsNashville.com. Tickets will be on sale until 24 hours prior to departure or until tickets are sold out, whichever comes first. Children ages 4 and younger will not need a ticket to board; however, they are required to sit in a parent or guardian's lap. Anyone needing special accommodations to board are asked to contact WeGo Customer Care at 615-862-5950 prior to their trip.
