Hammond is a South Shore Line station in Hammond, Indiana that serves trains west and north to Millennium Station and east to East Chicago, Gary, Michigan City, and South Bend, Indiana. The station originally had ground-level platforms, but in 1998, the platforms were raised to allow accessibility for people with disabilities. The station house was also remodeled and modernized.

Westbound, this is the last stop before trains cross into Illinois, and the first stop in Indiana for outbound trains.
