Wasn't there a track that ran up to the main from the area around the round houses. It appears that there is a grade for one behind the roundhouse hotel area. Maybe it was just a service road.

The whole point of the viaduct was to get the tracks out of the Aurora (east) downtown business district. The only street-level tracks in the business district were street car tracks or the CA&E.

They're simply not destinations. Nothing there to see or do. Yorkville/Plano to/from Chicago? You bet! But you don't need to stop at Aurora!
