Each of the various suburbs along the 40-mile Metra BNSF train line has characteristics vary much different from the next. Why is that? Carefully researched and illustrated, Towns Along the Q describes the evolution of those communities from geologic formations through pandemic. Frontier settlements, bungalows, Victorian mansions, sprawling estates, seedy race tracks and drinking establishments, Capone era machine gun fire, colorful real estate developers, a highway made of wood, forest preserves, shopping centers, big box retail stores, a tragic train crash, and a zoo are all part of the story.
