    Unstaffed station with ticketing kiosk. There's even a little "museum" of the old station. Nice new station!

    I love the train ride to Chicago. No traffic, No hassle, No tolls, and the train drops you off right in the heart of downtown

    Very quick layover. Made our train trip even better because of the hart delays at stops. The conductor lead people on and off very quickly

    I forgot to check for public bathrooms but, there is a mini mart here that sells food and basic…read moresupplies which is a nice convenience. The station is decent considering how some Metra stations can be. The buses go here, though I decided to take a Lyft to my final destination and the pick up was a breeze from their large accessible parking lot. According to the Metra website, there are no ticket machines here either (I forgot to verify). Plus it doesn't run on weekends which is a big bummer, and sometimes the trains only run to Waukegan instead of all the way to Kenosha so you have to carefully check schedules.

    This review is for the rail nerds who might use Yelp, I can't be the only one. The Kenosha Metra…read morestation is the only Wi Metra station and as far north as Metra goes, the end of the line. Since it's the end of the line it has a small yard that stores the trains when not in service. As far as action goes it's pretty boring but since it's the end of the line but you can catch them stacking up or leaving the pool as they start up and shut sown for the day. You can check the Metra schedule for arrival and departure times for photos or videos. Since the Metra station is not super active on the weekends the bonus is that the Kenosha street car stops here plenty of times and will take you to the lake, museum, harbor and through a sliver of the down town for you to ride of for pictures and videos. There is plenty of public viewing access with out trespassing and you can walk in the station for platform viewing. The station was useful to me when I lived in Kenosha for people to visit me from Chicago but those days are over since I moved, now it's the Amtrak intermodal station for my needs.

    Harvard Metra is a small station that's easy to get to if you want to take the train in to Chicago…read moreinstead of driving. It's small but offers a fair amount of parking, including overnight parking in the far lot. Off-street parking is only $2 a day and payable at machines near the station. On our last visit, only one machine was working, which caused the line to backup when the train was already waiting in the station. There's not always a ticket agent on duty (if not, you can buy yours on the train), but in my experience the building has been open if you need the restroom. There's also a small coffee stand if you want to grab a beverage on your way to the city. The station is pretty small, so if you arrive early I'd recommend either hanging out in your car or walking over a couple blocks to the shops if they're open. Bring cash because you'll need it if you have to buy your ticket onboard.

    The Harvard Metra Station is such a great option when wanting to head down to Chicago, but not…read morewanting to deal with Chicago traffic, (or tolls!). The station itself is small, not a lot of room inside. If taking the train during winter months, you'll most likely want to wait in your car until the train arrives. There is plenty of parking and it's a very reasonable price. The train tickets are very reasonable, as well. I've never had a late train or any issues what-so-ever. This is commuter train line. That's one thing to keep in mind if you decide to take this down. It will stop. Over and over and over again. But even with the stops you make good time, and it's WAY less stressful than making the drive yourself!

    Typically when I think Woodstock, I think Groundhog's Day. However, when I think Woodstock train…read morestation, I think House of Wax. To refresh your memory: Paris Hilton breaks down in a ghost town without Nicole Richie. Now hear me out, people do arrive here... typically 5-10 minutes before the train arrives (understandable because I wait in my car until the train actually pulls up), but my House of Wax reference is pointed directly at the supposed coffee shop that's inside the station. Allegedly called Church St. Cafe but I haven't confirmed. Has anyone ever actually gotten coffee here? I love my Starbucks, but I would be 10x happier supporting a local spot if they would just, for the LOVE of caffeine, open up. And no this is not a COVID thing because I've had this dilemma since early 2019. The hours are wonky and unpredictable because I've literally caught the train at this station at every offered time between 5 am and 12 pm. I digress... The only fair thing for me to do is to compare this station to other Metra Rail Stations and so I will say it's not the best or fanciest, but it does the job, it's in a nice area, and it's reliable. There isn't a terribly large amount of seating outside or inside (although I've never seen a single soul inside) and a limited amount of bike racks although most people seem to just chain their bikes to the little fence. Location-wise, it has that hometown feel and is only a block away from Woodstock Square where you'll find a movie theater, restaurants, bars, and in the right season, the farmer's market. It's worth noting, you cannot purchase tickets here, but you can get them once you're on the train or through the Ventra app. How much you enjoy your train ride is dependant on what time you ride, what car you choose, and if you have snacks. Not all train cars are created equal... there's a couple of quiet cars at the front and back, newer cars have electrical outlets, a select few have wi-fi (only fast enough to check email), and the super new ones have cup holders. On the upside, seating choice is usually unrestricted because Woodstock is practically end of the line with Harvard the only stop before (if you're going into Chicago). Keep in mind, if they say the train leaves at 7:48 am, the train absolutely leaves at 7:48 am. Use the Ventra app to track the train and see if there are any delays, but there usually aren't. And COVID procedures are enforced on the train based on requirements in Chicago and the state. All I really want out of this train station is to add some more benches and to sell me a cup of coffee and maybe a cheese danish. I need the former because they do fill up quick and on the warm days when I do decide to wait outside, I often find myself contemplating sitting on the ground. And I need the latter because just take my money.

    This is a simple Metra station that offers free parking. There is no ticket booth so I recommend…read moreyou buy online using ventra app in order to avoid the surcharge if buying on the train. There are a few small bus stop style covered seats but only a few. Fortunately the parking lot is close so most people just wait in their cars during periods of inclement weather. There is a coffee shop that may sell food but I have never gone in since it doesn't open prior to my morning train.
