An outbound Metra commuter train arriving at the Forest Glen depot in Chicago Illinois USA. January 2007.

I took this photo at the Metra Forest Glen commuter rail depot, on Chicago's far northwest side. This flagstop depot is located on an elevated embankment above Elston Avenue just west of Foster Avenue. This railroad line is owned by the Canadian Pacific Railroad. The line sees daily Amtrak Hiawatha service to Milwaukee Wisconsin, and Metra commuter rail trains to Fox Lake Illinois. Prior to 1985, this line was owned by the Milwaukee Road Railroad.
