SouthEast Service (Metra)

SouthEast Service (Metra)

The SouthEast Service is a proposed commuter rail line which would be provided and operated by Metra in Chicago, Illinois, USA, and its surrounding suburbs. The line will be located along tracks owned by CSX Transportation and the Union Pacific Railroad, but would not be operated by either of them.

Its northern terminus would be LaSalle Street Station in downtown Chicago. The line would then traverse Chicago's southern neighborhoods and its southern and far southern suburbs to south of Crete, Illinois.

The Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad once operated commuter service on this line, but service was discontinued in the 1960s.
