I took this photo on a lovely Autum morning in October of 2007. Seen here in west suburban La GRange Illinois, is the very architecturally stylish, and very classicly timeless Metra, Stone Avenue commuter rail station. The main building with it's arches, is located just east of Brainard Avenue along the northside of Burlington Avenue. The well manicured park like setting with plenty of trees and plantlife, give this commuter train stion a very pleasant look and feel. It's a great place for fellow railfans to just sit and enjoy a lovely day on an adjacent lineside park bench. There are many freight trains from the BNSF Railway speeding through here daily, as well as Amtrak, and Chicago's Metra commuter rail trains heading to or from Aurora Illinois.
