It has been a long time BUT I think there was more of a Coffee Shop rather than a sit down restaurant.  Kind of like the Chuck Wagon Grill under the dome on the DZ

BRHS BB #37 covers the Burlington Boxes,this stations that were also division offices and built,of the later square design. Aurora,IL is covered at some length with no mention of a restaurant. The drawing does show a news stand across from the ticket office and just North of the doors to the subway. Having spent quite a bit of time in the Aurora depot I have a hard time 

Picturing a restaurant in it.

It's almost certain that Bonneville WY no longer has a Grier's Restaurant.  The joint CBQ-CNW depot and passenger trains are long gone from Bonneville.  Searching for Grier's Restaurant at www.dexknows.com shows nothing either in Bonneville or Shoshoni WY.    Norm Metcalf, Boulder Colorado

I have been asked how many Grier's restaurants were there and in which Burlington stations.  I'll start the list:

 

Burlington

Galesburg

 

If you know of others, please add them to this list.
