One of My favorite railfan haunts of recent times, is the very busy crosstrack junction located on the border at west suburban Cicero Illinois known as Hawthorne Junction. I arrived in time to capture this heavy slow moving transfer train, heading southbound over the Belt Railway of Chicago tracks enroute to the BRC's own Clearing Yard in Bedford Park Illinois. The train is crossing the Canadian National ex Illinois Central crosstracks at Hawthorne Junction on a sunny and mild Indian Summer afternoon in early October of 2007.
