please do not come to the Illinois Railway museum this weekend. It is closed
and you will drive out for nothing
We prefer that you come back between Memorial Day and Labor Day and enjoy
yourself with us
Rochelle Railpark is a junction of UP and BNSF mains, and the town has made it
into a real railfan haven.
The location is about an hour west of the city by car if you are mobile

Hi all,
I have a few days this coming weekend that I will spend in Chicago on
my way to Milwaukee for the Tourist Railway convention. I plan on
staying downtown and will visit Union station, Roosevelt Road viaduct,
and take the dinky out to Aurora with several stops in between. I plan
on visiting the roundhouse /restaurant in Aurora.
Anyone have any other suggestions on "must see"?
Thanks,
Dale Grice
