Canadian Pacific Railroad switchstand. Franklin Park Illinois USA. Late July 2007.

I took this photo one evening in northwest suburban Franklin Park Illinois. Seen here just footsteps west of the Scott Street railroad crossing, is this wisely padlocked manual switch stand. This switch leads to an industrial branchline with spur sidings.

These are the types of photos I love the most- objects along the railroad (or road of life) that aren't normally seen.

Nice capture.
