I know Metra Police handle the lines where metra crews run (Milw, RI etc). Who handles the police duties on the BNSF AND UP lines? Is it Metra or the operating railroad.

I have not had the pleasure of calling Cook County, but I have called county administrative non-911 numbers and still reached a 911 operator. The toll free number could be redirected to a local number that would still get immediate, if not urgent, call handling.

It would serve him right.He was on his cellphone and was parked in a handicapped spot should I have had Wilmette PD ticket his car? He didn't even notice the kids throwing rocks until I brought it to his attention. Who could he have been on the phone with, his wife/girlfriend/significant other or his boss? Finally he acted kind of like an idiot when the cops showed up, wonder why?
