[CBQ] Re: Aurora IL depot

["Verne Brummel" <ldb53jmb55@charter.net>]

So sad to hear about this. My parents, siblings and I took many trips from this 
station over the years. My Dad remembered (and witnessed) when it was 
constructed (in the early 20's), and my Mom took her first train ride from the 
older depot that this station replaced, in 1916. I'll share this information 
with my 78 year old sister, whom has many happy memories of the Aurora that she 
grew up and loved.
