| Post subject: | Junction Railway passenger service |
Junction Railway was the original name for the connection built between Montrose and the CNW line in Evanston just south of the Central St. (now METRA) station. Shortly after its construction, Junction Railway was absorbed into the CNW. A provision of its franchise in Evanston was to provide passenger service. Stations were supposedly constructed at Emerson St. and Greenwood Blvd. (now Greenwood St.). Where where these stations located? Were there any other station sites, either in Evanston or elsewhere? Any timetables, photos, reference sources, etc. available? While some of this line still exists in Skokie, Lincolnwood, and Chicago, the Evanston portion is long gone. TIA for any help Hank Morris hankmorris@earthlink.net |
