Eastbound Belt Railway of Chicago transfer train at Hayford Junction. May 1987.

A late 1940's EMD Cow and Calf TR-4 2 unit diesel switcher set , still in service in 1987, pulls an eastbound transfer freight train through Hayford Junction on Chicago's Southwest Side. This lovely day with temperatures around 76 degrees with lots of hazy sunshine, was indeed a great day to photograph the Belt Railway of Chicago as it was during the 1980's. This equipment has since been replaced.
