Two train meet in Franklin Park. Franklin Park Illinois USA. January 2007.

An eastbound Metra commuter local enroute to Chicago Union Station, passes a Canadian Pacific transfer train in northwest suburban Franklin Park Illinois. I took this photo in bitterly cold conditions, with a strong wind blowing out of the west in January of 2007. The freight train is departing Bensenville Yard, and is more than likely heading to the Belt Railway of Chicago interchange at Cragin Junction. From there, it will proceed southbound to the Belt Railway of Chicago Clearing Yard in Bedford Park Illinois.

It was a blast. We made many many friends there. Some may still be living. I was always in the middle strutting.
