Harvey Station is one of two Metra Electric commuter rail stations along the line's Main Branch in Harvey, Illinois. The station is officially located at Park Avenue & 154th Street, and is 20 miles (32 km) away from the northern terminus at Randolph Street Station.[1] In Metra's fare-based system, Harvey Metra Electric Station is in zone D.
Compared to most stations along the Metra Electric line, including Harvey's other station at 147th Street, Harvey Station is quite grand in its appearance. According to the City of Harvey's official website, the station is located two blocks from City Hall, and near Pace's Harvey Transportation Center.[2]
Parking is available along Park Avenue and the west side of the tracks between 155th Street and a bridge for a Canadian National Railway line that crosses underneath the Metra Electric Main Branch, as well as the Amtrak line that runs parallel to it, carrying the City of New Orleans, Illini, and Saluki trains. It also contains a much larger parking lot on the east side of the tracks surrounded by 155th Street, Commercial Avenue, and 156th Street.
