Is there anything about Lisle and Hinsdale that prevented the stations being
built on the south side or is there any indication as to why they were on the
north side of the tracks? Would the location of the station relate to whether
the bulk of the local population was living on the north or south sides of the
track, road access, land availability or some other reason?

….in my study
of early Chicago-Aurora stations I found two stations that were originally
built on the north side of the tracks…. Lisle was always on the North
side of the Tracks and Hinsdale was originally North of the
tracks. Also, Downers Grove and Riverside both
had their stations in the middle of passing tracks and end of double track.
