This is coming from a rookie railfanner from Iowa, but here are a few of the places I enjoyed while I was out there: Naperville Station-Very beautiful station, lots of traffic. I especially like the tunnel underneath the tracks Glen Ellyn Station: I was staying here, and I took the Metra into the city. It's on the same line (UP-West, the Main to Denver) as Elmhurst. Nothing like standing 4 feet away from an Autorack at full speed. Word of note: On the UP lines from Chicago, trains run on the left-hand side. Chicago & North Western Station: It's now the Ogilvie Transportation Center, but the locals still call it Noth Western Terminal. The Citicorp tower was built right on top of it. There's a really cool sign above the skywalk from Riverside Plaza that says "To C. & N.W. Rwy. Trains" The "L": One of chicago's trademarks. You can walk from North Western Terminal to the Clinton St. station. I reccomend riding the Green Line to Clark/Lake, then taking the Orange or Brown Line around the Loop. The Green Line even crosses over the UP tracks coming from the Terminal.
