I took this photo on a Febuary 1985 visit, to downtown west suburban La Grange Illinois. The commuter trains on the recently formed Metra, Chicago commuter rail agency, were still using these classic 1953 vintage EMD rebuilt model E-9 passenger cab unit diesel electric locomotives from Pre Amtrak times. This commuter local enroute to Aurora Illinois, is viewed upon arrival at the La Grange Road Amtrak / BN commuter rail station.
