Re: Ghost of old Chicago 'L' branches

Freeway median routes are a mixed blessing. Standing on the platform waiting for a train with all of the pollution machines zooming by is not very pleasant, OTOH, the EPD land seizures make ROW acquisition easy.
I agree the Stockyards Branch was doomed, though lack of sufficient metal car fleet also drove the abandonments.
