[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 685574, member: 1963"] As I recall it, the train(s) were supposed to run from Chicago to Green Bay, with stops at most of the population centers along the Lake Michigan coastline. There would also be expresses that ran straight to Kenosha and Racine, and straight to Milwaukee. A "spur rail" off of Milwaukee would run direct to Madison, enabling folks in Chicago to get to Madison by changing trains once, in Milwaukee. Illinoisans from Chicago north were eagerly awaiting this rail system as many Illinoisans still drive from home as far as Milwaukee to work every day. Rail would've cut way back on fuel use and pollution generation. Not gonna happen while WI is owned by the Kochs. [/QUOTE]
