Evanston: Central (25:21 – 28:00)

At 25:21 is the tower that controlled movements between the North Line (Old Line) and the Weber Line. At 26:39 you can see the original northbound Central Street station platform behind a flimsy fence and some advertising. It sat decaying from the time the third track was cut back from Wilmette to Canal Tower (50′s?) until the station was given a major renovation, I think in the 90′s. The platform seen here was built on the former right of way.
