Buses for South Shore passengers coming to an end April 9

Trains will run along the entire South Shore Line again on April 9, and buses will no longer carry passengers between the Gary and Dune Park stations then, the railroad announced Monday.

A South Shore train operated by engineer Taylor Goins crosses from single-track to double-track in Michigan City during a demonstration run of the new track on Tuesday, March 19, 2024.

Construction on the Double Track project is essentially complete, a little more than two years after the approximately $650 million project began. The second set of bids called for shutting down the train service between Michigan City and Gary and carrying passengers on buses, to allow construction crews to work without having to stop when trains came through.

“This hopefully is the new normal, and everyone can breathe easier,” Valparaiso Mayor Jon Costas said of the new Double Track service.
