Woodstock is a station on Metra's Union Pacific/Northwest Line located in Woodstock, Illinois. The station is located on the Harvard branch of the Northwest Line and is the last stop before Harvard; inbound trains run as far as Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago. The station is located in the 'K' fare zone. Woodstock is 51.3 miles (82.6 km) from Chicago via Metra. The station consists of two grade-level side platforms which serve two tracks; there is a crossover located just north of the station.

At the present time, there is no ticket agent at the Woodstock station. Passengers boarding at Woodstock may buy one-way or weekend pass tickets from the Conductor for cash. Purchases of other types of tickets or purchases using other payment methods must be done at a station with a ticket agent. The closest station with a ticket agent is Crystal Lake.

The gap between Woodstock and Harvard is the longest on the Metra system, with trains traveling through an entire fare zone to reach the other station. It takes 19 minutes to reach Harvard from Woodstock.
