Joliet Union Station bows out after 102 years of passenger service
I’m sorry to read that this union station has come to an end. I hope that it will not be torn down and made into a parking lot.
Rail’s detractors will be eager to see the depot demolished. I hope this historic station can be saved for an alternate use or converted into a museum or a spot for train watchers to enjoy railroad activity at the crossings.
Amtrak will go to any length to suck up to the freight railroads. Hope BNSF is paying for the changes.
