Hi All,

I found a few old threads on this issues but they seem to have stale info in them.

Can anyone help me understand how the parking works @ the Metra station in barrington? Each space is numbered, so I was thinking they are reserved/assigned, but after googling it does not appear so?

Anyway, I got an app the Metra website recommended 'ParkMobile' and I loaded up my account with sufficient funds. Is that all I need to do? Are those spots, even though they are numbered, first come, first serve?

Anyone out there want to break down how this works? I assume it's not limited to Barrington, so if anyone else wants to chime in that parks at a Metra Station every day, I'd appreciate it!

And yes, I am a noob when it comes to taking the train in. Sorry if these are very rookie questions

In Barringtons metra station lot,find a spot, park, remember the number on your spot, go to the large pay machines next to station,follow paying directions .
voila. . I do not commute often, so your app might be easier for everyday use.
