Eastbound Santa Fe transfer train at Hayford Junction. July 1989.

A hot July saturday afternoon, was spent taking photographs at Chicago's Hayford Junction. I took this photograph of an eastbound A,T & S F
Atchinson ,Topeka & Santa Fe transfer freight train, crossing the Grand Trunk Western Railroad mainline at this populair southside Chicago railroad junction. I used to spend many happy hours there recording Belt Railway of Chicago train activity, as well as the trains of other freight railroads entering or leaving nearby Clearing Yard. In the background can be seen, a Commonwealth Edison electrical power substation. Ahh. Happy summer memories past.
