SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The South Shore Line announced earlier this week that they will be offering free rides to first responders this upcoming Saturday through Wednesday.
"To show appreciation and to say thank you for their service to the community, the South Shore Line is inviting all doctors, nurses, EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, other medical personnel, and law enforcement to ride the train free of charge Saturday, Sept. 7, through Wednesday, Sept. 11 on all westbound and eastbound weekday and weekend trains."
To ride free, medical and law enforcement personnel must only present a valid work ID to SSL train personnel that shows they are employed at a hospital, doctor’s office, medical facility, fire department, police station, prison, or aforementioned related agency.
According to South Shore officials, law enforcement encompasses police officers, correctional officers, TSA agents, and other security personnel.
