[il-talk] State Convention Hotel Info

[Steven Hastalis]

Since this article about the hotel mentions transportation, here is some 
info about train service to and from Naperville.

Metra, Chicagoland's commuter rail system, has extensive service on the line 
between Chicago and Aurora.  Trains run early morning through late evening, 
although less often on weekends.  The official name of this service is Metra 
BNSF, Burlington Northern Santa Fe, the name of the railroad.

Amtrak also runs several daily trains on the same schedule seven days a 
week.

All these trains serve Chicago at Union Station, downtown at Canal and 
Jackson.

For further info, please contact:

Amtrak, 1 (800) 872-7245 or USA-RAIL, amtrak.com;

Metra, Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) Travel Information, using any 
Chicagoland area code, (312) (773) (708) (630) (847) (815) then 836-7000, or
