Maywood Vote Planned on West Towns Railway Franchise
Maywood village council considers a twenty five year franchise for West Towns Railway. The plan would abolish tracks on Fifth Avenue and St Charles Road and add double tracks on Madison and Lake streets to the village limits. Nineteenth Avenue would keep a single track to Melrose Park with cars looping via St Ladhead. A special election will decide the ordinance. Forest Park currently lacks a West Towns Mines franchise after a rejected earlier proposal.
