Belmont station (Metra)

Belmont is a railway station on Metra’s BNSF Line located on the outskirts of Downers Grove, Illinois in the small community of Belmont. The station is on Belmont Road 22.9 mi from Union Station, the east end of the line. As of 2018, Belmont is the 25th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 1,408 weekday boardings.

Like Downers Grove Main Street, Belmont has connections to both Pace Buses, and the Village's own Grove Commuter Shuttle. Unlike the stations at Main Street and Fairview Avenue however, Belmont has parking vendors.

The station underwent major renovations in the late 2000s. In order to reduce level crossing accidents, an underpass was installed. Belmont Road was re-routed underneath the tracks. Demolition began in late 2008, construction started in 2010, and the new underpass and pedestrian tunnel opened in 2012. The $60 million project was funded by Metra, BNSF, DuPage County, and the State of Illinois.

As of April 29, 2024, Belmont is served by 30 inbound trains and 32 outbound trains (62 total) on Weekdays along with all 36 Weekend/Holiday trains (18 per direction).
