Southbound Belt Railway of Chicago Transfer Train. March 1987.

A sunny but chilly late weekday morning in March of 1987, finds us watching a Southbound Belt Railway of Chicago freight train heading for Clearing Yard. We are on Chicago's southwest side, near the border of the town of Cicero Illinois. This location is just south of the 31st street vechicle overpass bridge. This train has just went over the Illinois Central Gulf railroads crosstracks, at a Location the Belt Railway crews refered to as ICG / Belt Tower.
