The Midwest Rail Rangers, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that I am President of, has become somewhat "sidelined" because of the virus. We used to present onboard educational programs on private rail excursions, Amtrak charters, the South Shore Line, and other venues. Most of which are now shut down through 2021.
We started doing "virtual programs" taking people on our You Tube Channel to various Midwestern destinations that are open -- in hopes of profiling them and giving them some business during the pandemic. We are releasing a new program every 2 weeks through atleast August 2021.
We would love ideas of cool depots, railroad museums, or rail-related sites we could tape at for future programs.
Needs to be with-in reasonable driving distance: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin.

Thanks, Richard. We ended up just recording there. Very cool place to visit... I would highly recommend it, and a ride on their partner North Shore Scenic Railroad.
If anyone has another idea, they would be welcome to share.
We have a list up at www.railrangers.org of places we have taped already.
