The Northbrook,Metra commuter rail station. Northbrook Illinois. January 2010.

A favorite location I sometimes enjoy visiting for some of My railfanning activities, is the Metra commuter rail station in far north suburban Northbrook Illinois.

Located on the Canadian Pacific Railroad's former Milwaukee Road northline at Shermer Road in downtown Northbrook Illinois, this depot features many pleasant and unique architectural features.

There is a good amount of Metra and Amtrak trains that pass through here daily, as well as freight trains that interchange to and from the nearby Union Pacific freight only ut off line south of here near Techny Road just north of the village of Glenview Illinois.
