In the Chicago area for work so I had to go check out the Illinois Railway Museum. It was a weekday so the museum was running one of its Electric Interurban Cars, Car #749, built in 1928 for the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad. Interurbans were neat railroads, typically electrified, that filled a niche for quick, frequent passenger (and some freight) service between city centers. Here car 749 passes by one of the many wigwag signals at the museum. #interurban #transit #transithistory
