Chicago Union Station, 1943

The waiting room of Chicago Union Station in 1943.

Union Station opened in 1925, replacing an earlier 1881 station, and is now the only intercity rail terminal in Chicago. Union Station was built on the west side of the Chicago River and stands between Adams Street and Jackson Street. It is, including approach and storage tracks, about nine and a half city blocks in size, mostly underground. The Chicago Union Station Company, now a subsidiary of Amtrak, owns the station.
