Metra built the new Suburban Station in what was the old back shops building
of the Aurora Shops complex. The city of Aurora and Metra built a fine depot
at the new Transportation Center. Through out the waiting area many pictures
of the Burlington are displayed and what is probably more important they kept
the "look" alive of the back shop building. The only real downside is..... no
more Amtrak Service. Amtrak now stops at Naperville instead of Aurora.
