GTW freight train approaching interchange connection. Hayford Junction. Chicago Illinois USA. January 1987.

A grand trunk Western RR freight train has just left the nearby Belt Railway of Chicago Clearing Yard, and is now entering the southbound interchange track connection to the GTW mainline. Hayford Junction is located on the southwest side of Chicago at w 76Th Street and s St. Louis Avenue near Richard J. Daley College and the Ford City Shopping Center. I was up to My shins in accumulated snow to get this photo.
This is an example of Chicago Winter Railroading after a passing snowstorm.
