by Robert Tabern (Author), Kandace Tabern (Author)

The busiest Amtrak route in the Midwest is the "Hiawatha Service" between Chicago, Glenview, Sturtevant, Milwaukee Airport, and Downtown Milwaukee. From the building of this railroad line in the 1870's by the Milwaukee Road to the present-day, this route guide book explains it all. Both regular travelers and rail fans will enjoy knowing what they are seeing outside the windows of the train as they take this 85-mile train trip between two of the Midwest's most interesting cities. This milepost-by-milepost guide points out various historical and natural landmarks that even the most frequent traveler between Chicago and Milwaukee might not know about.
