This photograph was taken by Me, on a rainy May afternoon in the spring of 2006. Out of view to the right is a small freight train yard along Kinzie Street. The Union Pacific Railroad EMD GP-15T light diesel roadswitcher, is in the process of assembling the local switching train that serves the industries in this industrial park section of the city. While all this switching activity is taking place, a Union Pacific Railroad maintenance crew is busy inspecting and maintaining the crossing gate signal on north Kilbourn Avenue. It too occasionally has been known to malfunction and stop traffic on Kilbourn Avenue. Sometimes during rush hour.
