      You've just solved a little mystery for me. Along the Metra's West Line (which goes from Elburn, IL, to Chicago), there's a factory area that the train passes. A smokestack is the most visible thing, and it says "Sprague Warner & Co." on it (in bricks). Actually it says "Prague Warner & Co." because the top part of the stack seems to have been removed. Now I know what they did!
