Service Alerts
The Metra Electric District and Union Pacific North Line will run extra train service for anticipation of larger than normal crowds for Chicago home games at Soldier Field. For more information click here and visit metra.com.
There's various reasons train service could be affected causing delays. During autumn months when leaves fall on tracks and a train's wheel crush them, a slick oily residue is left behind on the rail. This residue makes it harder for the train to get proper traction to start, stop, and maintain speed. As a result, delays may be experienced during your travel. Plan ahead and allow for extra travel time this autumn season. For additional information click here.
Tracks #2, and #4, are out of service on the south concourse at Chicago Union Station until further notice due to the Canal St., construction project. BNSF, Southwest Service, and Heritage Corridor passengers should check gate boards prior to boarding their trains. If you need help, please contact Metra personnel for assistance.
You can receive real-time alerts, specific to this line when you sign up for My Metra.
