Except for the downtown Chicago terminals, opening and closing of Metra station washrooms is handled by the individual municipalities' maintenance departments.

Exception: if a Village/City takes a hands-off approach AND Metra posts a live human ticket agent at the station, then that agent will open & close the washroom(s) at the start & end of their shift - typically around 6 AM-1:30 PM weekdays only -; we're SOL afternoons, weekends, & holidays.

On Friday, the East Lake Forest Station door was open.  However, the Lake Bluff station was all locked up.  And yes, Ravinia station still open.


This past Sunday I rode to the Ravinia and Glencoe train stations and found both stations and their washrooms open. Has anyone tried the east Lake Forest station recently?


Also wondering about Lake Bluff and West Lake Forest!
