Stone Avenue (also known asLa Grange–Stone Avenue) is a station onMetra'sBNSF Line inLa Grange, Illinois. The station is 14.1 miles (22.7 km) fromUnion Station, the east end of the line.[2] In Metra's zone-based fare system, Stone Avenue is in zone 3. As of 2018, Stone Avenue is the 55th busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 946 weekday boardings.[1] An unstaffed station building is on the south side of the three tracks.

Like the other La Grange Metra station (La Grange Road), La Grange-Stone Avenue is between West Burlington and West Hillgrove Avenues. Stone Avenue, the road for which the station is named, is actually a minor street which terminates at West Burlington Avenue in front of the station, only to begin again at a dead end street south of Bell Avenue. The closest major street to the station is Brainard Avenue. The station is within walking distance of the North Campus ofLyons Township High School. It is 0.4 miles (0.64 km) from the main La Grange station.[3]

The station was built in 1901 by theChicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, to aRichardsonian Romanesque design by the company's general architect,Walter Theodore Krausch.[4]

As of September 8, 2025, Stone Avenue is served by 26 trains (13 in each direction) on weekdays.[5]
