How was it that interurban railroads like the North Shore and the Aurora & Elgin were allowed to connect and use the CTA to get downtown? Seems like this was a common arrangement in the Chicago area. I think the FRA would forbid such an arrangement today... for the day, were the North Shore and the Roarin' Elgin considered iterurban railroads, or rapid transit lines?
