Indian Hill is a railroad station in the southernmost portion ofWinnetka, Illinois, an affluent suburb north ofChicago. One of three stations serving that village, the Indian Hill stop is served byMetra'sUnion Pacific North Line trains, with service toOgilvie Transportation Center in downtown Chicago. Northbound trains go as far asKenosha, Wisconsin. In Metra's zone-based fare schedule, Indian Hill is in zone 3. As of 2018, Indian Hill is the 125th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 387 weekday boardings.[1]

The station is located on Winnetka's southern border, at Green Bay Road and Winnetka Avenue, less than a mile west ofLake Michigan. Outbound trains stop on the west platform, and inbound trains stop on the east platform. Indian Hill lacks a ticket agent office; boarding passengers must buy their tickets on the train. Travel time to Ogilvie ranges from 31 to 39 minutes, depending on the train.

As of September 20, 2025, Indian Hill is served by 56 trains (28 in each direction) on weekdays, and by all 30 trains (15 in each direction) on weekends and holidays. During the summer concert season, an extra weekend train toRavinia Park station also stops here.

Indian Hill is at the southern end of what is known as "The Big Ditch", which carries the railroad under Winnetka. Before the early 1940s, Winnetka hadgrade crossings, where accidents caused 31 deaths between 1912 and 1937.[2] The village, federal government, and railroad authorities funded a five-year project to rebuild the railroad below grade, and this was completed in 1943, after which there were no more level crossings in Winnetka.
