Digital Live Sound Video: Westbound CTA Skokie Swift train at night. Skokie Illinois USA. January 2009.




I photographed this night time winter video in January of 2009, in north suburban Skokie Illinois. A westbound Chicago Transit Authority Yellow Line train AKA the Skokie Swift, is seen passing the railroad crossing on Kostner Avenue. We are looking south on Kostner Avenue on a bitterly cold winter night with single digit outdoor temperatures. Notice that the CTA train isn't tooting it's horn for the crossing, proboubly due to a local nocturnal horn abatement ordinance. Also notice the wake of snowdust in it's path.
