Built Today. Better Travels Tomorrow! This new social media series will be highlight Metra's external project work activities and how it provides a meaningful impact to rider benefits. We're aiming to increase public understanding of infrastructure projects while reinforcing Metra's role as a responsible steward of public investment. We are so proud of our latest milestone! On Wednesday, July 1, Metra announced the completion of a multi-year project that fully rehabilitated 302 railcars. By doing rehab work in-house, we are proud to save millions of taxpayer money and keep dollars and jobs local. Thank you so much to our wonderful team who made this possible!

@SSideSoul Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we will notify our RID mechanical team for handling.

@Metra On @metraRID run 610, one side of car 7313 has no air circulation.

@TomsStillHere We will take note of your feedback and forward it to our scheduling team for handling. Please be advised that NCS operates on tracks that are owned by various freight companies, and we may not have access at those times not listed on our schedule.

@Metra Any future plans on adding more trains to the NCS route? Usually take the CTA Blue Line to downtown when I need to go to Union Station, but taking the NCS takes you directly there, which is something I love. Removes the need to transfer on the CTA trains and less walking.

The greatest tool we have in the fight against the crime of human trafficking is learning and staying vigilant. On June 10, Metra hosted a Routes to Safety conference to encourage enhanced awareness and safer communities. View the conference at metra.com/RoutesToSafety. If you suspect someone may be a victim, contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline at (1-888-373-7888), text (233733), or visit humantraffickinghotline.org.

Metra today announced the latest milestone in its in-house rehabilitation programs, completing a multiyear project that fully rehabilitated 302 railcars while saving taxpayers more than $100 million versus outsourcing.

@MF4344913588997 Yes, Metra will operate on a Sunday/Holiday schedule on July 4, 2026.

@Metra Will trains operate on a holiday schedule on July 3 or 4? I can’t seem to find any info.

@Metra 2 times this week you have closed the doors on the 4:10 up west line at 4:08. I recommending training your staff on telling time. #dobetter

@NikNastay_ We apologize for the negative experience received, for immediate assistance, please seek out on board crew members and they can address the person in question.

Oh the vaping man is at it again @Metra @metraRID he’s a fiend fr

Just in time for the 4th of July, Metra today unveiled a specially painted locomotive commemorating the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding. The locomotive is the 26th of 42 remanufactured locomotives that Metra ordered from Progress Rail Locomotives of La Grange. The new locomotives, designated as SD70-MACHs, are former freight locomotives that are improved and reconfigured for passenger use with refurbished, upgraded, or new components. The special locomotive was painted by Progress Rail using a design by Metra Senior Graphic Designer Falecia Woods with input from the operations team.

@IamEmpressFox Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we will notify our station engineering team for handling.

Smh @Matteson1855 and @Metra it’s a whole new week and going on 2.5 weeks of yall not cleaning this literal shit off the walls… and I guess allowing the water to evaporate saves money; but cmon, this is ridiculous. No maintenance workers or janitors? #ChicagoScanner #Metra

@TomBamonte Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we will check in with our RID Station engineering team to see if this is an elevator operated by Metra, and if not we will forward this to the operators of the elevator for handling.

@Metra The ADA elevator at LaSalle Street Station doesn’t give users guidance as to which floor is street level and which floor is platform level.

Metra will provide additional service on the Union Pacific Northwest Line and Union Pacific West Line on Sunday, June 28, to accommodate those planning to attend Chicago’s 55th Annual Pride Parade. View the news release: metra.com/newsroom/servi…

@TheRealAutumnG Thank you for contacting us. To view our refund policy, please visit metra.com/lost-tickets-r….

@Metra I need some type of compensation. Every damn time I need to use you all the past 2 weeks I end up buying a ticket to just have to pay for a fuckin $40 uber because you seem to also run express. Figure it out and reimburse me

Steps away from history. Taking Metra Electric to the Obama Presidential Center is easy: 🚆 Get off at 55th–56th–57th St. (ADA Accessible) 🚆 Or ride to 59th St./University of Chicago (about a 10-minute walk) 🚆 Or ride to 63rd St. (about a 10-minute walk) Heading to the Grand Opening Watch Party? Walk west from 59th St. to the Midway Plaisance and enter at Woodlawn Ave. Skip the traffic. Skip the parking. Take Metra and spend more time where it matters. Plan your trip: metra.com/ObamaPresident…

Enjoying live music outdoors has long been a part of a Chicago summer night, and whether your tastes run to classical, jazz, pop or R&B, the Ravinia Festival is the place to be. Now, getting to the festival grounds has never been more convenient or economical thanks to a continuing partnership between Metra and the Ravinia Festival.

@IamEmpressFox Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we will notify our MED station engineering team for handling.

.@Metra I know there has to be money in the budget for your employees to visit each stop twice a day and clean up. The 211th Street at Lincoln Highway is in terrible condition and there has been literal shit on the walls since Friday. Unacceptable. Smells like death.

@Chicago_History The Peterson/Ridge Station project and bridge was completed in May 2024. More information about the project is located here: metra.com/newsroom/peter… or Station details: metra.com/train-lines/st…

Chicago Metra UP-N track carries 34,000 passengers on 70 trains across this bridge each weekday. #ChicagoHistory ☑️

@tnertz Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we will notify our UPN station engineering team for handling.

Hey @metra. Everyone is ducking under a power line on the inbound UPN Ashland stairs

@filmteknik Thank you for reporting this matter to us, we forward your feedback to our station managers for handling.

@Metra At Millennium Station. No new schedules visible so I asked at the help desk and your staff said the new schedules won't be given out until Monday - after they go into effect. You assume everyone has internet access. I do but not everyone does. They were always avail in advance.

Metra is implementing service improvements across the Metra Electric Line with a new schedule that takes effect June 15. The new schedule simplifies service patterns and increases service frequency at multiple stations in alignment with the goals of the Northern Illinois Transit Authority Act to expand public transit access and improve reliability.
