Location
Map

Englewood Union Station was a major rail junction and passenger depot in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. Four railroads served the station in its prime – the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad, the New York Central Railroad, the Pennsylvania Railroad, and New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad, which operated over the New York Central via trackage rights. The station closed in 1978 when the Rock Island closed intercity rail operations and intermediate stops between LaSalle Street and Gresham. There are presently no plans to reopen the station.
