Join Kandace & Robert Tabern with the Midwest Rail Rangers as they visit the former Chicago & North Western (current Metra) depot in Lake Forest, Illinois for a two-part program.
The second part continues the historic depot tour with David Mattoon. We will get to go down in the "secret tunnel" beneath the station that has been closed to passengers since the 1970s.

The Midwest Rail Rangers is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that normally presents onboard educational programs on the South Shore Line (Chicago to South Bend), the Wisconsin Great Northern Sky Parlour and Mark Twain Zephyr Open Houses, on private rail excursions across a seven-state area, on Amtrak charters organized by the 20th Century Railroad Club, and at various outreach events.
Due to the COVID-19 virus, they have decided to offer virtual programs to the public instead until in-person programs can safely resume on trains. For more information about the Midwest Rail Rangers, please visit www.RailRangers.org.
