Amtrak Provides a Special Fan Experience for Brewers Surge Collective Supporters

Amtrak and the Brewers created the “Brewers Express” to blend sports enthusiasm and the ease of rail transportation. Each car will have team colors and themed floorings to commemorate Milwaukee’s baseball heritage.

Pre-departure, the Intermodal Station will be a dynamic pre-game party. During that first hour, the first 300 riders will have free giveaways and bratwursts, and a DJ will perform for the masses. Due to that level of planning, the excitement comes well ahead of the train ever leaving the station.

Bernie Brewer and Barrelman will make appearances at the Milwaukee Airport Railroad Station. Thus, there, fans also get to experience interactive activities as well as special-in-transit exclusives prior to when the train heads to Chicago Union Station.

Amtrak Bridges Sports, Community, and Sustainable Travel

Amtrak’s partnership with the Brewers shows the increasing need for green sports travel. The train provides a comfortable option for fans to the drive, which decreases traffic and ends traffic and emission increases.

It wants to make the Brewers Express a template for future sports sponsorships. And since it marries entertainment to green mobility, it advances both community involvement and green cred.

Departure times will be finalized once game times have been finalized. Train tickets are available to fans via the company’s own Amtrak.com or mobile app, but those fans will have to get a separate ticket to gain entry to Wrigley Field.
