TRI-STATE TOUR CHICAGO CENTURY
Taking the Metra Train from Waukegan

You can end your ride at rest stop 4 in Waukegan and take the Metra train back to downtown Chicago or up to Kenosha if you want to don't want to ride all the way to Kenosha or don't want to wait for our return transportation service from Kenosha to depart after the route closes. The Waukegan Metra Train Station is only 0.2 miles from rest stop 4 and you can easily walk or ride there under 10 minutes. Click Here for more information about the Waukegan Metra train station.

If you want to take the Metra train back to Chicago from Waukegan and also still complete a century, you will still be able to do so by riding up to Kenosha, stopping at the rest stop there, then riding back to rest stop 4. Riders who plan on completing a century this way must depart Kenosha by 3:00 pm in order to arrive back in Waukegan by the rest stop closing time.

Metra Train Schedule
This is the schedule for the trains from Waukegan that we will support.

This schedule corresponds to the times rest stop 4 will be open, except for the train that departs to Chicago at 5:10 pm (25 minutes after rest stop 4 closes). Even though this train departs after rest stop 4 closes, our rest stop attendant will wait before he departs to make sure everyone is able to board the 5:10 pm train. If anyone is not able to board the train he can still transport them to Kenosha as part of our normal SAG support service.

Later trains will still be available to both Chicago and Kenosha in case you miss these trains. Check the Metra Union Pacific North line schedule for more information.
