Burnside Shops
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Burnside Shops were a major shop for maintenance of locomotives and railroad cars in Chicago, Illinois. The shops were owned and operated by the Illinois Central Railroad.
The Illinois Central maintained a presence in Burnside since at least 1862, when it built a station there.[1]
In 1968, the Illinois Central agreed to sell the site to Chicago State University. Burnside was replaced by new facilities built at Markham Yard in Harvey and Homewood, Illinois.[2]
