Eastbound Burlington Northern freight train with a caboose. Berwyn Illinois USA. July 1985.

I took this photo looking east from the south platform of the Metra / Burlington Northern commuter rail station, located at South Oak Park Avenue and west Windsor Street in Berwyn Illinois. An eastbound Burlington Northern freight train is slowing down as it approaches and enters nearby Clyde Yard in Cicero Illinois. The Majorette Restaurant with the tall red neon sign to the left of the photo, was recently demolished and is undergoing redevelopment into a large luxery condominium building complex today.
