Digital Live Sound Video: Westbound Metra express commuter train passing through the Mars commuter flagstop depot. Chicago Illinois USA. June 2009.



I photographed this digital live sound video after work one evening, in early June of 2009. We are at the Metra,"Mars" commuter flagstop depot located on North Oak Park Avenue. The little station is located immediately adjacent to the M & M Mars Candy Factory. (Hence the unique name.) A short westbound Metra evening express commuter train, is seen racing through the depot around sunset.

This action is taking place on the Metra /Canadian Pacific ex Milwaukee Road mainline to Elgin Illinois, on the northside of the city of Chicago Illinois.
