About

Embark on a 90-minute guided walking tour through Chicago's historic Union Station to explore its longtime Hollywood connections. Discover how this iconic train station has been represented in movies like "The Untouchables" and "My Best Friend's Wedding" and TV series like "Run" (HBO Max) and "Fargo" (FX). 

Led by a passionate Ph.D. guide, you'll also explore the building's lesser-known history, including its ties to a glamorous Chicago restaurant that catered to classic movie stars and a local clock company that dabbled in Hollywood. As with all our guided movie tours, your experience in and outside the train station will be enhanced by clips, photos, soundbites, and screenshots. 

Finally, exclusive to this Union Station tour, you will gain access to areas not usually available to the public. Perfect for film enthusiasts or those seeking a unique way to view Chicago's Union Station.
