Great Lakes is one of two railroad stations in North Chicago Illinois, served by Metra's Union Pacific/North Line. The station is officially located at 3000 South Sheridan Road, is 32.2 miles (51.8 km) away from Ogilvie Transportation Center, the inbound terminus of the Union Pacific/North Line, and also serves commuters who travel north to Kenosha, Wisconsin. In Metra's zone-based fare system, Great Lakes is in zone G.
It is named for the Great Lakes Naval Training Base in North Chicago and the City of North Chicago.
Parking is available at the end of Ohio Avenue which leads from the southern terminus of the Amstutz Expressway. Like Waukegan Station, Great Lakes Station serves as a stop for the Great Lakes Naval Training Center. Unlike Waukegan Station, however, the Naval training center surrounds much of Great Lakes Station, which is also located near the Shore Acres Country Club.
The connection to the Pace bus system has a boarding location near the main entrance to the naval station, it is also a location for taxi pick ups, and drop offs.
