Where can I park when I take the train to Chicago?

Daily Fee Parking

Parking is limited around the Geneva train station. Daily parking lots cost $2 per day in the parking deck and a $1.75 in the Route 31 overflow lot. Daily parking on normal workdays in the garage fills up by 7 a.m.

Passport Mobile Payment App
