If you have ever wondered why the Metra Union Pacific North Line runs on the left, Geoffrey Baer had the definitive answer.

I have also read that because the population of the communities being serviced by the train live east of the tracks, the RR station

was built on on the east side of the tracks so people had a shelter while waiting for the train.

This pertains to UP North formerly the Chicago and Northwestern which was completed in 1854.
