The first station was a simple boxcar located near Central Ave. Before train travel came to Deerfield, you’d have to take a horse and buggy to Chicago—or walk to the Highland Park train station. today appears it as station The Deerfield had long been a resting place for travelers between Chicago and Milwaukee. John Kinzie “Indian” Clark, would stop in the area on his Chicago-Milwaukee mail route, which followed Waukegan Rd., an old Native American trail. An early Deerfield settler, Lyman Wilmot, was an abolitionist whose home was a stop on the Underground Railroad. Wilmot’s son reflected on the hangec to the town the railroad brought, writing in a diary entry on New Year’s Eve, 1874: “Now as I write the shades of the last evening...are gathering fast, the sky is cloudy & as I look out of the east windows of the dining room & About the author see the smoke from the engine of a long freight train rising as a cloud as Dylan Zavagno is the Adult Services Coordinator at the Deerfield ublicP Library where he hosts the Deerfield the train rushes on up the grain, we are now in a living moving world & Public Library Podcast, featuring interviews authors, artists, and other notable people.

Agency October 2018 1.0 Overview The SmartWay Shipper Tool is intended to help shippers estimate and assess their carbon, PM, and NOx emissions associated with goods movement in the U.S. freight trucking, rail, air and barge sectors1. Shippers can track their freight-related emissions performance from year-to-year using the Tool and assess a range of strategies to improve the emissions performance of their freight operations, including selection of low-emissions carriers and implementation of operational strategies such as (but not limited to) packaging improvements, load optimization and logistical improvements. The SmartWay truck, barge, air, logistics and multimodal carrier emissions performance data that EPA has included in the Tool, along with industry average Class I rail CO2 data, will allow shippers to generate accurate emissions inventories. The data will also help shippers optimize their emissions performance by allowing them to better estimate the emissions impact of individual carriers, modal shifts, and operational strategies. 2.0 Tool Inputs and Calculations After shippers enter their company and contact information, they provide basic information about each company they operate, including the name and NAICS code for each of these companies.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. INFORMATION TO USERS This manuscript has been reproduced from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are reproduced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand comer and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps.
