Westbound Canadian Pacific two car freight local passing through the Galewood, Metra commuter rail depot. Chicago Illinois USA. October 2008.

Westbound two car Canadian Pacific switching local passes through Galewood station. Chicago Illinois. October 2008.

I took this photo around sunset, one evening in October of 2008. After waiting on a connecting siding for several east and westbound Metra express commuter trains to come speeding past this area, the crew of a two car Canadian Pacific local freight train has recieved permission from the dispatcher to proceed west on the mainline.
This photo was taken looking west, from the Metra, Galewood commuter flagstop depot on North Narragansett Avenue. The local is seen passing through the depot, as another Autum day in Chicago comes to a close.
