They have it at Wood Dale also, and other stations on the Milwaukee West Line.

BNSF now has the scrolling messages personalized for each station. Don't know if the announcement is made when a Metra train approaches for a stop.

Edit: It is. It must've been repeated 5 times when I heard it in Downers Grove on 5/6/09 during the afternoon rush.
