An adjacent station, serving the Westchester branch, existed for rapid transit purposes on the Chicago "L" between 1926 and 1951.

This railway entered service on March 18, 1906, operating the Mount Carmel branch diverging from the main line at Bellwood.

[3] The branch diverged from the main line just east of the Bellwood station, so a new one was built immediately to the south of the CA&E's facilities to serve the "L".

[5] The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), a publicly owned entity that had taken over the "L" from the CRT in 1947, discontinued the Westchester branch on December 9, 1951.

[2] CA&E tickets were sold for Bellwood station at nearby Wordman's Drug Store, where they could be purchased between 7 a.m. and 9:30 p.m. on Mondays and 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. on other days.
