Wintertime at Hawthorne Junction. Chicago Illinois USA. January 2008.

A northbound Canadian National transfer train was waiting on a hold order on Belt Railway of Chicago trackage on a bright and sunny, but very bitterly cold Chicago winter morning in 2008. Once the dispatcher gives the train clearance, it will proceed northbound past the Canadian National ex Illinois Central crosstracks at Hawthorne Junction. Hawthorne Junction is in a wide open outdoor setting, with harsh freezing winds blowing in out of the west in the winter.
