Servicing South Bend International Airport, the station is {{Convert|3|mi|km}} northwest of the central business district of South Bend, Indiana. In November 1992, the Airport station replaced the South Shore Line's former terminus at the South Bend Amtrak Station.[1][2] The new station was constructed at a cost of $1.8 million and dedicated on November 20, 1992.[3] It was built at the end of what started out as Chicago, South Shore and South Bend Railroad's freight spur [4] NICTD and South Bend International Airport have considered moving the station to the west side of the airport (complete with a new track),[5] but no concrete plans have been made as of February 2010. The station has a ticket office and a waiting room. Because the station is incorporated into the South Bend International Airport building, riders can also take advantage of its extensive lounging areas, shops and a meditation room. Until November 27, 2009, most eastbound weekend South Shore Line trains terminated at this station. Since then, those trips have been cut in half, creating much larger gaps in service, to improve on-time performance for South Shore trains, which had suffered because the section of the line between Michigan City and South Bend is almost entirely single-tracked. Thus, if the westbound train got delayed, the eastbound train got delayed even more because it needed to wait for the westbound train to clear the track.[6] ConnectionsBusTRANSPO
