Freeport is a proposed Amtrak station in Freeport, Illinois. The station will serve a new Chicago-Rockford-Dubuque Amtrak route that is expected to begin operation in late 2014 or early 2015.[1][needs update] The station's construction largely involves the renovation of the Rawleigh building, which is part of an abandoned factory complex in downtown Freeport, as well as adding onto the complex accordingly to make it suitable for use as a train station.[2] However, with the new proposal for Amtrak service to terminate in Rockford following the inability of the state of Illinois to reach a deal with the Canadian National Railway (CN) for use of their tracks, the Freeport station project is on hold until a deal can be reached with CN.[3]
