Clarendon Hills was the site of a collision at 8:16 AM on Wednesday, May 11, 2022, between inbound Metra train no. 1242 and the cab of a box truck stopped on the tracks. It was not immediately known why the truck was stopped, as there had been sufficient room for it to safely clear the crossing. One person, a 72-year-old Downers Grove woman aboard the train, was ejected from the first car and killed. At least four people were injured, including the train engineer and a conductor. The driver and two passengers of the truck had escaped prior to the impact and were not injured.

The preliminary NTSB report was issued June 15, 2022. [1] A 661-page Project Summary containing 59 docket items was released to the public by the NTSB on May 17, 2023. [2] It reported that there were nearly 1,500 feet (0.46 km) of clear viewing of the crossing from a train rounding the curve east of Westmont station. The track speed limit is 70 miles per hour (112.7 km/h); the train was moving at 69.8 miles per hour (112.3 km/h). The initial brake action was initiated within 2 seconds and full emergency brakes had been applied within 9 seconds. The train had been slowed to 55 miles per hour (89 km/h) at the moment of impact 18 seconds after the first view. It finally stopped 29 seconds later another 1,508 feet (0.46 km) down the track.

The schedule in effect on the day of the collision shows train no. 1242 as a local train, making all stops between Aurora and Chicago and departing from Clarendon Hills at 8:00 AM. [3] However, on the day of the incident the assigned trainset had suffered a mechanical failure; a replacement trainset originated at Downers Grove Main Street station with orders to bypass all stations between Fairview Avenue and La Grange Road to get back on schedule.

Following the incident, inbound service was curtailed for the rest of the day, with outbound evening rush service being reduced; Clarendon Hills station was open only to discharge passengers. Alternative options for passengers included Hinsdale and Westmont stations, or Metra's Union Pacific West Line. The following day, Metra ran a modified Saturday schedule, with local trains serving all stops except Clarendon Hills. The station reopened on May 13 with regularly scheduled service, and the Prospect Avenue grade crossing has since reopened.

Clarendon Hills was the site of a collision at 8:16 AM on Wednesday, May 11, 2022, between inbound Metra train no. 1242 and the cab of a box truck stopped on the tracks. It was not immediately known why the truck was stopped, as there had been sufficient room for it to safely clear the crossing. One person, a 72-year-old Downers Grove woman aboard the train, was ejected from the first car and killed. At least four people were injured, including the train engineer and a conductor. The driver and two passengers of the truck had escaped prior to the impact and were not injured.

The preliminary NTSB report was issued June 15, 2022. [1] A 661-page Project Summary containing 59 docket items was released to the public by the NTSB on May 17, 2023. [2] It reported that there were nearly 1,500 feet (0.46 km) of clear viewing of the crossing from a train rounding the curve east of Westmont station. The track speed limit is 70 miles per hour (112.7 km/h); the train was moving at 69.8 miles per hour (112.3 km/h). The initial brake action was initiated within 2 seconds and full emergency brakes had been applied within 9 seconds. The train had been slowed to 55 miles per hour (89 km/h) at the moment of impact 18 seconds after the first view. It finally stopped 29 seconds later another 1,508 feet (0.46 km) down the track.

The schedule in effect on the day of the collision shows train no. 1242 as a local train, making all stops between Aurora and Chicago and departing from Clarendon Hills at 8:00 AM. [3] However, on the day of the incident the assigned trainset had suffered a mechanical failure; a replacement trainset originated at Downers Grove Main Street station with orders to bypass all stations between Fairview Avenue and La Grange Road to get back on schedule.

Following the incident, inbound service was curtailed for the rest of the day, with outbound evening rush service being reduced; Clarendon Hills station was open only to discharge passengers. Alternative options for passengers included Hinsdale and Westmont stations, or Metra's Union Pacific West Line. The following day, Metra ran a modified Saturday schedule, with local trains serving all stops except Clarendon Hills. The station reopened on May 13 with regularly scheduled service, and the Prospect Avenue grade crossing has since reopened.
