User:DanTD/DanTD's Railroad-Related Projects/DanTD's Metra-Related Projects

Despite the fact that I've never been anywhere near Lake Michigan, I found so much interesting information on railroad stations owned by Metropolitan Chicago area's Metra stations, I had to write about them. Here they are;

Articles I've Created
NOTE: Most of these articles were renamed "Foo (Metra station)" in the winter of 2013-1014. However, let it be known that I refuse to recognize the recent campaign to eliminate railroad systems from station names over the excuse of unnecessary disambiguations, with the exceptions of major terminals and hubs such as LaSalle Street Station, Ogilvie Transportation Center, and Jefferson Park Transit Center.

BNSF Railway Line:

 * Belmont (Metra)
 * Downers Grove (Metra) (was reanamed Downers Grove – Main Street (Metra))
 * Fairview Avenue (Metra)
 * Highlands (Metra)
 * Lisle (Metra)
 * Route 59 (Metra), although it was already tagged as unreliable, despite the fact that I used Metra's official site as a source.

Metra Electric Line:

 * 75th Street (Grand Crossing) (Metra)
 * 83rd Street (Metra Electric)
 * 87th Street (Metra Electric)
 * 95th Street (Chicago State University) (Metra)
 * 103rd Street (Rosemoor) (Metra) (Which I've renamed "Rosemoor/103rd Street (Metra)")
 * 107th Street (Metra Electric)
 * 147th Street (Sibley Boulevard) (Metra)
 * 211th Street (Lincoln Highway) (Metra)
 * Ashland Avenue (Metra)
 * Avalon Park/83rd Street (Metra)
 * Burr Oak (Metra) (With this one, all ME Blue Island Stations are complete)
 * Chesterfield/91st Street (Metra)
 * Harvey (Metra Electric) (was renamed "Harvey (Metra)")
 * Ivanhoe (Metra)
 * Matteson (Metra)
 * Pullman/111th Street (Metra)
 * Racine Avenue (Metra)
 * Richton Park (Metra)
 * Riverdale (Metra) (This one, I may consider renaming to "Riverdale (Metra Electric)")
 * South Shore (Metra)
 * State Street (Metra)
 * Stewart Ridge (Metra)
 * Stony Island (Metra)
 * West Pullman (Metra)
 * Woodruff/87th Street (Metra)

Milwaukee District/North Line:

 * Deerfield (Metra)
 * Forest Glen (Metra)
 * Fox Lake (Metra)

 * Grayslake (Metra)
 * Ingleside (Metra)
 * Lake Cook Road (Metra)
 * Lake Forest (Metra Milwaukee District/North)
 * Libertyville (Metra)
 * Mayfair (Metra)
 * Prairie Crossing (Metra Milwaukee District/North) (which almost got tagged as a duplicate of Prairie Crossing (Metra North Central))

Union Pacific/North Line:

 * Fort Sheridan (Metra) (With this one, all stations along Metra's UP-N line are complete).
 * Glencoe (Metra)
 * Great Lakes (Metra)

 * Des Plaines (Metra)
 * Edison Park (Metra)

 * Norwood Park (Metra)
 * Palatine (Metra)
 * Park Ridge (Metra)
 * Pingree Road (Metra) (It wasn't finished, but I couldn't wait for the info)

North Central Service:

 * O'Hare Transfer (Metra)

Rock Island District:

 * 91st Street - Beverly Hills (Metra)
 * 95th Street - Beverly Hills (Metra)
 * 99th Street - Beverly Hills (Metra)

 * 119th Street - Blue Island (Metra)
 * 123rd Street - Blue Island (Metra)
 * Longwood (Metra)
 * Mokena - Hickory Creek (Metra) (With this article, all stations for the RI were complete, until the Jones/Bronzeville (Metra) station article, which serves U.S. Cellular Field was built, and somebody else wrote an article on that one.)
 * Mokena - Front Street (Metra)
 * New Lenox (Metra)
 * Prairie Street - Blue Island (Metra)
 * Tinley Park (Metra), and it's too bad I haven't got an image, because in the present condition, this article does not do it justice.
 * Tinley Park - 80th Avenue (Metra)
 * Washington Heights (Metra)

Articles I Want to Create

 * At this point, all articles for existing Metra stations are complete. Evidently, some are being planned for the future SouthEast Service (Metra) and Suburban Transit Access Route (Metra) lines, but I'm not really ready to do anything on those right now.
 * A Template:Metra style, which I vaguely remember that other people werre trying to make.
 * Consider renaming Millennium Station as Millennium Station (Chicago terminal), due to the existence of Millennium Station (OC Transpo).
 * One other thing; the Template:S-line/Metra right/Metra Electric is currently arranged so that any routebox listed between 63rd Street (Metra) and Pullman/111th Street (Metra) automatically has to be split, so that the destinations of the following station don't include South Chicago (93rd Street) (Metra). I'd like to be able to solve that problem without screwing up the thing.
