An eastbound BNSF Railway freight train passing through Riverside on a Springtime morning. Riverside Illinois USA. April 2007.


The BNSF Railway's former Burlington Northern / ex Chicago, Burlington & Quincy 3 track mainline in Chicago's western suburbs is a very busy mainline in the greater Chicagoland area. Although there are mostly commuter trains traveling between Chicago and Aurora Illinois during the morning hours, I spotted this eastbound BNSF Railway freight train passing the large Riverside Illinois commuter rail station. The station lawn was turning green, and the trees and shrubs would soon follow as another season changes in Chicagoland.
