Bloomington had the shops.
Chicago Union Station was begun in 1874 and included Pennsylvania RR, Chicago Burlington & Quincy, Michigan Central, C&A, and Chicago Milwaukee & St Paul but Michigan Central dropped out before it was opened. A new station was built beginning in 1913 and opened in 1925. It was completed in 1927. When I worked for REA, I spent a lot of time at the regional offices several blocks south of the station.
Dwight has a beautiful stone station built in 1891. It is now a museum.
