When are the westside loop Union Station/CNW intermodal station going to get built to connect intercity rail with the proposed Carrol street BRT line? I saw drawings of a proposed model in the midwest High speed rail news letter years ago?

also what about a facility at O'Hare airport to connect Amtrak trains into the airport could also connect to the STAR line and North Central lines

By now you should know that models aren't even close to being implemented. The service boards now claim to have no capital money and are scrounging to get the match for the New Starts, and there is no indication that the city is putting any capital into the transit system (except for remodeling subway stations it owns). Didn't you just post that WBBM said the RTA told them to cut back? CTA is going to have to find a way to fix the Red and Blue Lines before there is any chance for expansion, let alone for projects not in the New Starts or Five Year capital plans.
