New Lake County Metra service launches Monday

Beginning Monday, March 4, the morning and afternoon train schedule will be improved to accommodate reverse commute riders at the western Lake Forest station on Telegraph Road.

A new outbound express train will leave Union Station at 6:25 a.m. and arrive in Lake Forest at 7:15 a.m. In the afternoon, express service will leave the Lake Forest station at 5:09 p.m. and 5:35 p.m. and arrive at Union Station in about 50 minutes or less.

This is part of a two-year pilot project for expanded rush hour commuter service on Metra's Milwaukee District North Line. Visit https://metrarail.com/MetraMore for additional information.
