Don't forget to pay for parking on week days. The machine takes cash or card.

Bought the long-term pass. This is awesome to have since I commute 4 days a week. Paid to the end of the year. Can buy 3 months, 6 months, or a year.

Horribly poor location planning. How about you place the train station location a few more miles from "downtown"?

UPDATE: Unlike nearly all other Metra Stations; parking is NOT free at Elburn on weekends. Not paying your $1.50 will result in a $40.00! parking ticket 24/7; I know from experience.I have parked there numerous times on the weekends without issue; so I don't know if this is something new or what, but it rather spoiled my Father's Day weekend.$40 is extreme; teach a lesson with $15-$25.I've read reviews bashing this station. Someone complained about having to pay for parking (c'mon, it's only $1.50 for all day) Another complained that the station wasn't where they expected it to be. Do your homework before you go; Google is your friend.Another complained about no "laboratories"(uh, lavatories - there is a difference). Go before you leave home, stop at McDonald's, or wait until you board the train as there is a bathroom on each car. Would you rather pay a whole lot more to park for the privilege of having a toilet there?By the way, contrary to what one reviewer wrote, there IS NO surcharge for buying your ticket from the conductor when there is no agent on duty; we have bought tickets from the conductor after boarding at Elburn dozens of times over the years and were never hit with a surcharge...It is a simple, basic train station with ample parking - just make sure to pay your $1.50 fee and don't back into your parking space and you will not be ticketed.

It's actually $2 for a 24 hour parking pass. Paid for with credit or debit card at one of two little machines by the platform. Always plenty of spaces.

There's really not much you can say about this train station. It's well kept and clean, which is always a positive. You do have to pay for parking, but I believe they do free parking on the weekends.There's no attendant on sight, so you will have to purchase your tix through the VENTRA app or pay cash to the train attendant for an upcharge.There's also no bathrooms at this station, so make sure to go potty before you get here and wait for your train. The metra train itself does have bathrooms in certain cabins.

Keep an eye out for the small signs for parking fees. Otherwise it was a parking lot.

As far as parking lots go, it's decent.
