- " Amtrak will be offering expanded train service later this year between Chicago and New Buffalo, Mich.
The current daily service will be replaced by two existing trains, one of which already stops at Hammond/Whiting station, Chicago-Based Amtrak Spokesperson Marc Magliari said.
The new service is coming in response to plans by a private developer to build an improved station to replace to three-sided shelter at West Washington and South Whittaker, Magliari said.
The new station is slated for 225 North Whittaker.
