115th Street–Morgan Park station is one of two Metra railroad stations in the Morgan Park neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, along the Beverly Branch of the Rock Island District Line. It is 14.3 miles (23.0 km) from LaSalle Street, the northern terminus of the line.[1] In Metra's zone-based fare system, 115th Street is in zone C.

Parking is available along the west side of the tracks on South Hale Avenue between Edmaire Street and north of 116th Street. It is also available on small on-street lots along the north side of 115th Street between the tracks and Church Street. No bus connections are available.

The train station building was damaged by a fire in May 2017. Officials ruled that arson was the cause of the fire.[2]
