Nearest train station to the May Fair Hotel?

Nearest station from Mich. City train to Silversmith Hotel at 10 S. Wabash Ave. Should we take a cab or walk ?

• Any problems getting train tickets at Michigan city for a weekend getaway? Whats the easiest station to deal with in Michigan City coming from Holland , Mi.? Thanks

• Answer:

  You will be taking the South Shore Line...not Amtrak or Metra which terminate at Union Station or Ogilvie Trans. Center. The Michigan City station is at 11th ST. Go to the following site for train station info: http://www.nictd.com/service/stations.htm#11th%20Street%20(Michigan%20City) Tickets can be bought with cash only on train. Check below for specifics: http://www.nictd.com/service/fares.htm The Silversmith hotel is about midway between the Van Buren ST station and the Randolph St station....about 5 blocks...5/8 mile...not a long walk. Below is the route from the Randolph St station: http://www.mapquest.com/directions/main.adp?do=nw&go=1&r=f&aoh=&aot=&aof=&1a=&1c=Chicago&1s=IL&1z=&1y=US&1l=rOwPOGChygTcF2L0zBvepA%3d%3d&1g=%2f1QvlK2Xo03J6tARSSXrSA%3d%3d&1pl=&1v=CITY&1ffi=&1n=Cook%20County&1qn=Railroads&2a=10%20S%20WABASH%20AVE&2c=CHICAGO&2s=IL&2z=60603%2d2801&2y=US&2l=&2g=&2pn=&2pl=&2v=&2ffi=&2n=&2qn=&2qc=&q=Railroads&1pn=Railroads&1sb=South%20Shore%20Commuter%20Rail%20Svc%7c151%20E%20Randolph%20St%7cChicago%7cIL%7c60601%7c41884342%7c%2d87623291%7c312%2d782%2d0676%7cUS&1qc=Railroads
