Congress Park tower was was on the north side, the interchange with the IHB in the Congress Park section of Brookfield.
We received cars from the IHB and had a small yard to make up west bound trains.
Did have a small passenger station. on the South side. I don't remember Hollywood.
Long arm switching between all 3 main lines either direction. Tom
Welcome Tom,
I grew up in Brookfield just north of the Prairie Ave station. I remember the Hollywood and Congress Park stations. Can you remind me where the Congress Park tower was at? I was a little tyke in the 50's with my earliest memories from around '58.
