Hubbard Woods (Metra station)
Hubbard Woods is a station on Metra's Union Pacific/North Line located in Winnetka, Illinois. Hubbard Woods is located at 1065 Gage St. Hubbard Woods is away from Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago, the southern terminus of the Union Pacific/North Line.〔(Metra Railfan Tips - Union Pacific/North Line )〕 In Metra's zone-based fare system, Hubbard Woods is in Zone D.
Hubbard Woods consists of a station and two platforms which serve two tracks. The station is located at street level and is open from 5:15 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. The platforms at Hubbard Woods are located in a below-grade depression. The platforms are accessible from Scott Avenue as well as a pedestrian bridge adjacent to the station house. Parking is available at Hubbard Woods. The Green Bay Trail, a hiking and bicycle trail, runs parallel to the train tracks at Hubbard Woods and is accessible from the platforms. Until November 2015, this station had a ticket agent.
==History==
Hubbard Woods and the other two Metra stations were built by the former Chicago and North Western Railway. These stations in Winnetka were originally built at grade level like all other Union Pacific/North Line stations north of Evanston Central Street. However, the grade crossings were not very safe, and accidents at railroad crossings resulted in twenty-nine deaths between 1912 and 1937. After two prominent Winnetka women were killed by a train at the Pine Street crossing in October 1937, the community of Winnetka demanded that something be done about the railroad crossings. It was decided that the railroad tracks would be lowered into a below-grade trench to eliminate street crossings. The project which lowered the tracks was partly funded by the Public Works Administration and was completed in 1943 after five years of work.〔("X" is for Railroad Crossings: The Big Ditch )〕 Hubbard Woods and Winnetka stations are located in the trench, and Indian Hill is an elevated station just south of the trench. The tracks of the electric Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad, The "North Shore Line" were also relocated at this time and tracks were shared for periods during construction.
