[milwaukee-electric] Re: Name of the Milwaukee Train Station During 1969

[Joel Ambelang]

As far as I know, dating to the early 40s, The Milwaukee Road  station was always The Milwaukee road and North Western had its own station on the lake front at the head of Wisconsin Ave. Diagonally across the street from the Milwaukee road was the transit shed where Greyhound and other bus lines shared the Electric Co. shed with interurbans.

Hi John,
I'm going to put this one out to the Milwaukee Electric Discussion List. I have heard people refer to the station on St. Paul Avenue as "Union Station" since both the Milwaukee Road and the Chicago and Northwestern used it, but I do not recall what the station's offical name was.  Guys?

Today, it is a combination rail and bus station.
