111th Street (Pullman) is a commuter rail station on Metra Electric's main branch in the Pullman neighborhood on the far south side of Chicago, Illinois. It is located at 111th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue, and is 13.95 miles (22.45 km) away from the northern terminus at Millennium Station.[2] In Metra's zone-based fare system, 111th Street (Pullman) is in zone C. As of 2018, the station is the 219th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 31 weekday boardings.[1]
The station is little more than a platform between the tracks over a bridge with street-level connections. It is the last station along the main branch of the line before Kensington Station, where the Blue Island Branch and Main Branch split. No parking is available at the station, however there is a connection to two of the Chicago Transit Authority's bus routes.
The station was reconstructed with a waiting shelter, custom signage, and a total makeover to attract more passengers to the nearby Pullman National Monument.
