Southbound Metra commuter train. Northbrook Illinois USA. June 2008.

Southbound Metra passing through Northbrook Illinois. June 2008.

I took this photo last year in June of 2008. A southbound Metra commuter train, is viewed speeding underneath the bridge of the Union Pacific Railroad's freight only cut off line near Techny Illinois. The Metra train is traveling southbound over the Canadian Pacific ex Milwaukee Road mainline enroute to Chicago Union Station. This Union Pacific line overhead, originally belonged to the Chicago & NorthWestern Railroad. The Metra train is enroute to Chicago from Fox Lake Illinois on a hot summer afternoon.
