Train Mural
All Aboard!
Mural with acrylic
Acquired: 2002; Location: Junior Room

With farmlands to the west, the skyline of Chicago to the east, and a stylized depiction of Downers Grove in between, a colorful mural graces the wall of the Junior Room’s picture book section, which was created by artist John McDavitt. A train, which was donated by Gregory Family, circles the tracks in front of the mural.

The mural was made possible, in large part, by generous donations from Downers Grove area businesses: Chuck’s Gourmet Market; Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage; Downers Grove National Bank; Downers Grove Reporter; Dream Interiors; Every Day’s a Sundae; Grove Travel; Herberts; Dr. Stephen T. Jagielo; Johnson Printers; Kranz Real Estate; Midwest Bank; Mulberry Street; Joe Pepitone Realtors; Scott Inc.; Sugar Plum; Tivoli Theatre; Toys on Main; and West Suburban Bank.
