Last Train Home is the fifteenth studio album by British hard rock band Foghat. The album was released on 15 June 2010, under the band's independent music label Foghat Records.
Since its release, Last Train Home has been met with mostly positive reviews from critics. Steven Erlewine of Allmusic gave the album three stars out of a possible five, and said that Foghat "play with a considerable amount of energy and a precision that only a veteran touring band could have, making this a nice little surprise for hardcore fans".

Producer Nick Jameson played bass and keyboards on the album, and co-wrote the closing track, "Take It or Leave It", with Dave Peverett. Appearing in the photograph on the back cover of the album, Jameson is not known to have toured with Foghat in support of the album.

The album has also been released, with slightly different track listings, under the titles Blues Jam at Chess Volumes One and Two and Fleetwood Mac in Chicago, the latter by Sire Records in 1976.

A few of the songs are given a rockabilly treatment augmenting the blues rock the band is better known for. It would be the band's last album for over a decade until their comeback album, Return of the Boogie Men, in 1994.
