For the end of a major line in Chicago, this station meets those goals. No bathroom but that is…read moreexpected since every CTA station is restroom less. There is a store inside the building that has food that's kinda overpriced. Bring cash if your total is under $1 because they charge a dollar with card. The elevator isn't what people say it is. It's fairly large and serves its purpose. There are 2 benches in the building and a few more outside, however, the benches inside are past the turnstiles, which means you can't use them unless you pay. There is also multiple Pace Bus Routes, like the 301 that takes you from Forest Park to Wheaton Metra, or 303 which takes you to Rosemont. Very good station

Parking lot time is limited to 12 hours. There is no way to pay for and stay longer; you risk…read moregetting ticketed or towed. The last time I used the lot and returned around midnight, the parking lot lights were ALL turned OFF. Was scary spooky. Also some sketchy characters hanging around the station. Be advised that there are actually two lots: One is CTA, I think run by a contractor. The other is owned by the town of Forest Park - which does not respond to email inquiries. There are much better run, more accommodating, safer CTA stations with parking which I have experienced, but for those in the area, you're stuck. ps: The Yelp form just asked about "Gender Neutral Restrooms" - there are NO restrooms of any kind at ANY CTA stations!
