Westbound Canadian National Railroad tank car train approaching Hawthorne Junction. May 2007.


I took this photo after work one evening in May of 2007. This Canadian National freight train with a former Grand trunk Western EMD roadswitcher on the head end, has just finsished switching tank cars at the nearby Crawford Yard.
These cars will soon be backed up on the interchange connection on the north -south Belt Railway of Chicago trackage. This scene is at the Chicago city limits on the border with west suburban Cicero Illinois.
