Milwaukee district trains don't even go to Ogilive.

They operate out of the north end of Union Station, which is where the derailment happened.

This is my life. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

If this is a problem get used to it.

That picture shows a MILW district train on the north approach to Union station, just north of the Boeing building. Nothing to do with Ogilvie, but that's the news for you...
