When I detrained at Olgilvie this morning at 7:25, Congressman Mark Kirk was at the station greeting the commuters getting off the UP North and UP NW lines, with a big thank you sign.
The guy must have some energy, as I assume he was up late for the election returns.
I shook his hand and asked him about his support for trains
Apparently, he believes in rail travel (he was heavily involved in the IL Amtrak expansion) and was a sponsor of 450 million for expanded Amtrak funding.
