Trains go east to Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago and as far west as Elburn, Illinois. Travel time to Ogilvie is 22 to 27 minutes. , Maywood is the 194th busiest of the 236 non-downtown stations in the Metra system, with an average of 87 weekday boardings. Unless otherwise announced, inbound trains use the north platform and outbound trains use the south platform. The middle track does not have platform access.
As of September 8, 2025, Maywood is served by 43 trains (21 inbound, 22 outbound) on weekdays, by all 20 trains (10 in each direction) on Saturdays, and by all 18 trains (nine in each direction) on Sundays and holidays.
The station's parking is along Main Street between 1st Avenue to the east and 4th Avenue to the west. The station is in the heart of Maywood's business district. Across the tracks to the south of the station is the Maywood Public Library, the Maywood Police Station, and Veteran's Memorial Park, the Village's largest park. Pace suburban buses stop on North 5th Avenue and one block to the north on Lake Street.
The station was reconstructed to accommodate the addition of a third mainline track on the Union Pacific West Line in the 2010s. This resulted in the middle track at the station losing access to a platform, and this track is now solely used by Metra trains that do not stop at the station as well as Union Pacific freight trains.
A newly constructed station house opened on June 30, 2017.
