Caltrain  

Caltrain Monthly Pass customers, with two or more zones, receive a local/express fare credit on any SamTrans bus at any time.

Dumbarton Express  

Dumbarton Express 31-Day Pass customers receive a local/express fare credit if they board SamTrans within 2 hours of first boarding and tagging their Clipper card on DB Express.
