The Roarin’ Elgin: A Trip on the Chicago, Aurora, and Elgin Railway EXHIBIT

Presented by Wheaton Park District at DuPage County Historical Museum

The Chicago, Aurora, and Elgin Railway was one of the first known attempts at making an electric railway between Chicago and Aurora. The Roarin’ Elgin exhibit will explore the ways in which this interurban railroad impacted the lives of DuPage County residents economically, socially, and culturally in the early 20th century and what its closure meant for those it serviced.
