Karla Sibert, former travel agent, repurposes decommissioned train cars into an Airbnb on her Palo property once part of the Chicago Mil waukee Railroad right of way. The project, named A Lil R&R, follows a lifelong dream dating to 1995, combining a historic caboose and a Ball Mason jar carriage in a unique rural lodging venture.
