Now arriving, Sturtevant

            For several years in the early 1990’s, Amtrak would borrow some equipment from Chicago’s Metra to substitute for Amtrak trains on the Chicago to Milwaukee “Hiawatha” corridor for the busy travel time during Thanksgiving weekend. This would allow Amtrak to move the passenger cars and locomotives normally used on the run and expand capacity on other trains to handle increased holiday ridership. On November 30, 1991, Metra EMD E8(A) No. 515 and three bi-level commuter coaches on a northbound Amtrak train are arriving at the Sturtevant station stop in Wisconsin.
