This location is where Milwaukee's branch from Byrn Mawr meets its western route. The western route is now owned by Metra, although the CP runs some freights over it because it owns the route west of Elgin. The branch from the northern CP lines is owned by CP.

A Union Pacific freight passes the former Milwaukee Road, former Soo Line, present Canadian Pacific/Metra Tower B17 over the former Chicago & North Western realigned new New Line Subdivision (which is called something else now but I'm in denial) in Bensenville, Illinois - June 19, 2022.
Jeff Lewis: I think it's called the Renewed Line now.
Juan Antonio Troncoso-Muñoz: It might get realigned once more to open up the “chokepoint” of bensenville yard and to host a new part of highway to connect the interstate 90 with other parts,supossed to conect to the highway to nowhere(elgin-o’hare)
