Homewood (Amtrak station)
Homewood train station in Homewood, Illinois, United States is served by Amtrak, the national railroad passenger system, and Metra commuter rail service. It is also the location of the Homewood Railroad Park Museum. Homewood is from Millennium Station, the northern terminus of the Metra Electric Line.〔(Metra Railfan Tips - Metra Electric Line )〕 In Metra's zone-based fare system, Homewood is located in zone E. It is also from Union Station, the northern terminus of the three Amtrak lines that it serves.
==History==
Homewood Station was originally built by the Illinois Central Railroad in 1923 to serve their ''City of New Orleans'' and ''Seminole Limited'' (now ''Illini'') lines.〔(Great American Stations ). Accessed March 21, 2013.〕 Three years later, the IC Electric commuter line was served by the station. In 1960 the station also served such IC trains as the ''Panama Limited'', ''Creole'', and ''Green Diamond''. In 1971, Amtrak assumed control of the Illinois Central's passenger operations and continued the ''Illini'' and ''Panama Limited'' (later the ''City of New Orleans''). Metra purchased the IC Electric lines in 1987. In 2003 the Homewood Rail Heritage Committee approved the installation of a train watching platform for railfans similar to that of the Rochelle Railroad Park in Rochelle, Illinois. As with many suburban Metra stations, bus connections are provided by Pace Transit Systems.
