Lutter Brick & Tile in Glenview-Former MILW Customer

[TBurke]

Came across this history of Lutter Brick & Tile which was located on the north side of Glenview, north of Chestnut and between Lehigh and Waukegan Roads.  The clay pit was later converted into a landfill after it was closed and is now athletic fields.

Here's a view of the locomotive that was used in the pit.

Glenview had one time had several freight customers including Hines Lumber in downtown Glenview, just north of Glenview Road which was reached by a long spur that traveled east of the passenger station including some street running.
