This photograph was taken in august of 1986. We are looking southwest around 28th street just east of Kedzie Avenue in the Little Village neighborhood on the south west side of Chicago. Santa Fe rebuilt EMD gp7 #1310 is working the I-N (formerly Illinois Northern Rail Road) branch line local...wich ran north out of Santa Fe's Corwith Yard Monday thru Friday, serving the many industries along the I-N branchline. Washburne Trade School is the large building on 31st street in the background behind the engine.
