Texas GulfLiner Mardi Gras Train 

League Park in League City will be a terminal for The Texas GulfLiner during the next two Galveston Mardi Gras weekends.

Passengers will park their vehicles at the Park and Ride on Bay Area Boulevard at Feathercraft, and will be shuttled to League Park in League City to board the train for Galveston. 

There will not be activities in League Park, however, limited handicap parking will be available at that location.  

“The Texas GulfLiner is a fantastic opportunity for League City and our neighboring communities on many levels," said Mayor Jeff Harrison.  "It promotes tourism, provides a unique solution to mass transit issues, and increases mobility for the Galveston-Houston region.  Our support of the project through Destination League City is our way of encouraging the success of the Texas GulfLiner.”
