Where The ‘L’ Meets The Railroad: A Chicago History

In earlier days, the Chicago and Evanston Line (C&E Line), a freight line better known as the Milwaukee Road, ran through Lincoln Park and Lakeview going north. Now it’s being removed. The tracks tell the story of industry dating back to the 1800s as well as the history of Chicago’s ‘L’ lines. Reset talks to transit historian Graham Garfield and Tom Burke, author of “The Milwaukee Road In Chicago.” For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.
