Southbound Canadian National train on the Belt Railway of Chicago interchange. Hawthorne Junction. Chicago / Cicero Illinois. June 2007.

I took this photo after work one summer afternoon, in June of 2007. A southbound Canadian National freight train has just left the former Illinois Central Railroad's Hawthorne Yard in nearby west suburban Cicero Illinois, and is now proceeding southbound and connecting on to the Belt Railway of Chicago tracks at Hawthorne Junction. This busy railroad junction, is located directly on the border at West suburban Cicero Illinois, along the Chicago city limits.
