How do I use Metra Tracker?
To use Metra Tracker choose your line of interest followed by your direction of travel on the line and your station. Metra Tracker will proceed to show departure times for trains that will be departing at your selected station in the next 120 minutes. If a train is predicted to depart from the station in less than 2 minutes, the train's predicted departure time will be replaced with APPROACHING.
If a train is delayed due to an unusual event (such as a reroute, incident, or equipment problem), the departure predictions may remain the same or may even increase for that train. In the event that a train stops transmitting data to our servers, it will not appear on this website, even though it is in service.
