Eastbound Canadian National switching local waiting for clearance. Hawthorne Junction. Chicago Illinois USA, March 2007.

A two unit set of EMD roadswitchers wait on the Cicero side of the border at the Chicago city limits at Hawthorne Junction. Once the Belt Railway of Chicago crosstracks are cleared, the train will move eastbound to Crawford Yard to do some switching.
The hill behind the locomotives, is the site of the abandoned and soon to be redeveloped Bel Air Drive In Movie Theatre in the village of Cicero Illinois.
