95th Street/Chicago State University is an electrified commuter rail station along Metra Electric's main line on the northeast corner of Chicago State University in Chicago, Illinois. The station is located at 95th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue, and is 12.04mi away from the northern terminus at Millennium Station. In Metra's zone-based fare system, 95th Street/Chicago State University is in zone C.Like much of the main branch of the Metra Electric line, 95th Street-CSU is built on elevated tracks near the embankment of a bridge over 95th Street. This bridge also carries the Amtrak line that runs parallel to it, carrying the City of New Orleans, Illini, and Saluki trains. In addition the line, which is owned by Canadian National Railway has a connection to the Norfolk Southern Railway which crosses over the tracks as well as Cottage Grove Avenue, between Lyon and Burnside Avenues.In April 2004, the Chicago State University master plan called for a new station south of the existing one, which has caused some controversy among the students and the surrounding neighborhood. The station, if built, would serve as a combined Metra and Chicago Transit Authority Transit Center.Bus connectionsCTA 4 Cottage Grove N5 South Shore Night Bus 95 95th 100 Jeffery Manor Express (weekday rush hours only) 115 Pullman/115th
