When we pulled into Waukegan I got off the train and was standing on the platform when suddenly a black kitten crawled out from under the coach and I recognized it immediatly as the one I had seen in the Northwestern station in Chicago. The cat was very dusty but still well and hearty and now Waukegan has another feline.
