Bellwood served as the dividing line between local service provided by the CA&E and that provided by the "L"; it was the westernmost station where eastbound boarding was prohibited onto CA&E trains, as well as the westernmost station where passengers having boarded from Chicago stations were not allowed to alight. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bellwood_station_(Chicago_Aurora_and_Elgin_Railroad)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg/220px-Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="124" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg/330px-Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/26/Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg/440px-Former_Bellwood_CA%26E_station.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3264" data-file-height="1836" /></a><figcaption>The site of the now-demolished Bellwood station</figcaption></figure> <p>The Aurora, Elgin, and Chicago Railroad (AE&C) opened on August 25, 1902, with 15 stations between <a href="/wiki/Aurora,_Illinois" title="Aurora, Illinois">Aurora</a> and 52nd Avenue in Chicago.
