Eastbound Canadian Pacific freight train crossing Thatcher Avenue. River Grove Illinois USA. June 2007.


Even though I was stuck in a traffic jam, and still a considerable distance from the railroad tracks...I decided to attempt this evening photograph looking north on Thatcher avenue in northwest suburban River Grove Illinois. A slow moving eastbound Canadian Pacific Railroad transfer freight train, has brough all traffic on Thatcher Avenue to a complete stop. To the right at the fence, is the site of the recently demolished Questhoff's Flower Shop. The approaching night time sky and mild temperatures made the waiting a pleasant experience for this photographer.
