This could be another ploy by the governing folks in Wisconsin to "prove that rail travel doesn't work". During freeway construction a few years back, they tried to extend the Hiawatha service west of Milwaukee. The trains were poorly timed, there was little or no provision for station stops. The stops were often at a grade crossing, and you had to wait at teh roadside in all kinds of weather. Reading that there are no stops in Northern Illinios, it seems that this is just another "feel good" idea that really could work, but won't because it is designed to fail.
