Night time at the La Grange Road commuter rail station. La Grange Illinois USA. March 1983.

This is one of My "Early" railfan photographs.
I took this photo on a cold night, in early March of 1983. A westbound Burlington Northern commuter local enroute to Aurora Illinois, had just stopped to let off a few commuter passengers at the La Grange Road station. Some of the trains cars were now running empty, wich is why the conductors decided to shut off the coach interior lights on the first two cars. Soon the twin engined 1953 vintage EMD E-9 on the head end, will be rumbling off into the night making all stops between Chicago and Aurora Illinois.
