Pullman Train Days
"During the two-day event in May, numerous Pullman passenger cars will be on display at the nearby 111th Street Metra shop, including New York Central 3, Pennsylvania Railroad Francis L. Suter, and Louisville & Nashville Royal Street. The event will also mark the opening of “Jack Delano’s Railroaders” photography exhibit, a gallery put together by the Chicago History Museum and the Center for Railroad Photography & Art back in 2014. Delano worked for the Office of War Information and during World War II was sent to Chicago to capture railroad workers’ home-front efforts. The result was a priceless record of railroading during the 1940s and the traveling exhibit has become a very popular one in recent years. Additional events are being planned for the weekend".
This event is done in parternship with the Historic Pullman Foundation and Pullman State Historic Site. Fees may apply.
