Westbound Burlington Northern Commuter train. Hindsdale Illinois. October 1989.

A westbound Burlington Northern Railroad commuter train, has just stopped at the Hindsdale Illinois commuter station. The afternoon train, seen here on a lovely Sunday afternoon in October of 1989, is heading west to Aurora Illinois. The Burlinton Northern line was still using these early 1950's EMD E-9 Passenger Diesel Locomotives until September of 1992. By the time of this photograph, The Burlington Northern placards on the side of the commuter coaches, were already replaced by Metra blue placard signs.
