<HTML>Hi Ton,
I\'m afrraid that 4.5 hours might not be enough for that. Visiting U-505 is a guided tour which is available only for small group of people regarding lack of space inside the sub. So, visitors have to wait in large interesting room in front of entrance (here You can enjoy model of convoy, true torpedo etc). I spent 4 hours by waiting for cashdesk to pay entrance fee, walking to the sub, waiting until my group is permitted to entry, enjoying the sub ane walking back to the antrance. Driving from O\'Hare to the museum will take at least one hour, it depends on traffic..
Have a good luck
Regards
