No other American city had such a fascinating group of passenger train stations as Chicago, Illinois. John Kelly’s new Chicago’s Celebrated Stations and Trains highlights the architectural styles of the six major Chicago railroad stations, the men who designed them, and the trains that served them. The book is illustrated with vibrant color and black-and-white images from the 1920s to 1970s of Dearborn Station, Grand Central Station, Central Station, La Salle Street Station, Chicago & North Western Station, and Chicago Union Station. Steam- and diesel-powered streamlined passenger trains are shown arriving and departing the stations. Train ephemera, travel brochures, postcards, and detail maps of the six Chicago stations are included.The book also features three interurban lines that extended north, west, and southeast from Chicago. They were Chicago, North Shore & Milwaukee Railroad; Chicago, Aurora & Elgin Railroad; and Chicago, South Shore & South Bend Railroad. Chicago was the “Crossroads of the Nation,” and its six magnificent stations were the gates to everywhere aboard trains with glorious names such as the 20th Century Limited, Broadway Limited, Capitol Limited, California Zephyr, City of New Orleans, Golden State, Hiawatha, Super Chief, and 400.
