Laraway Road is a commuter railroad station in New Lenox, Illinois, a southern suburb of Chicago, Illinois. The station was dedicated on October 6, 2006,[1] and train service began on October 9, 2006. The station is a stop for Metra's SouthWest Service trains, which go to Chicago Union Station in downtown Chicago. As of 2018, Laraway Road is the 228th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 19 weekday boardings. The station's rank is tied with the neighboring Template:Stl station.[2]
As of February 15, 2024, Laraway Road is served by 10 trains (five in each direction) on weekdays. Three of the outbound trains that stop at the station make a flag stop to discharge passengers. Saturday service is currently suspended.
The station's parking lot has 300 spaces, although there is enough room to have a total of 1200. The actual station facilities are minimal, with a brick building housing bathrooms, along with a bike shelter. No bus service is available at the station, however.
A much older station in New Lenox exists along Metra's Rock Island District line. Prior to approaching Laraway Road station, Metra's SWS line crosses a bridge over the RID line. No connection is available between either station or line.
