Comments/Directions:
The former Chicago and North Western Passenger Depot in Dekalb was built in 1891. It is still standing but no longer used. The freight depot was across the tracks but was torn down. Wikipedia said it is used by the Union Pacific but t is currently boarded up. You can walk around the depot.
