Stone Avenue (also known as La Grange-Stone Avenue) is a station on Metra's BNSF Railway Line in La Grange, Illinois. The station is 14.1 miles (22.7 km) from Union Station, the east end of the line. In Metra's zone-based fare system, Stone Avenue is in zone C. A staffed station building is on the south side of the three tracks.

Like the other La Grange Metra station (La Grange Road), La Grange-Stone Avenue is between West Burlington and West Hillgrove Avenues. Stone Avenue, the road for which the station is named, is actually a minor street which terminates at West Burlington Avenue in front of the station, only to begin again at a dead end street south of Bell Avenue. The closest major street to the station is Brainard Avenue. It is .4 miles (0.64 km) from the main La Grange station.

The station was built about 1901 by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad according to a design by the company's general architect, Walter Theodore Krausch.
