Chicago Union
Station
I'm always happy being around Union Station in Chicago. It's
been the departure and return point for many of my train trips, and I'm always happy when
one of these old giant stations can still be used as an access point for intercity
passenger train service.

It's the waiting area in
the great hall. While trains aren't boarded directly from here, it's still a nice
place to hang out for a while.

direction of the hall. To the right is the Metro Deli, where we often have a large
tasty sandwich before departing.

Here's a view of the station from
