Eastbound Canadian Pacific container train. Elmwood Park Illinois USA. January 2008.

I took this photo on a quiet Sunday afternoon in near northwest suburban Elmwood Park Illinois. An eastbound CP Rail intermodal container train is seen passing the railroad crossing on 75th Avenue moving at moderate speed enroute to Cragin Junction, and to the Belt Railway of Chicago's Clearing Yard further south in Bedford Park Illinois. It was a quiet and partly cloudy afternoon, but the distant sounds of locomotive air horns out of the west brought Me trackside.
