Switching activity at the Canadian National ex Illinois Central, Crawford Yard. Chicago Illinois. May 2007.

I took this photo after work one lovely Springtime afternoon in May of 2007. This is the Canadian National Railroad's former Illinois Central Crawford Yard, located immediately east of the crosstracks at Hawthorne Junction. Two EMD roadswitchers, are seen assembling a lenghty train of tank cars at the former Illinois Central facility. Crawford Yard is located along the former Illinois Central Railroad's Iowa Division Mainline.
