The very busy Union Pacific Railroad M-19A Diesel Shop. Chicago Illinois USA. October 2007.

The very busy Union Pacific Railroad M-19A diesel Shop. Chicago illinois. Early October 2007.

A very active railroad locomotive terminal on Chicago's West Side of the city, is the Union Pacific Railroad's M-19A Diesel Shop. This former Chicago & NorthWestern Railroad facility, is located at 400 North Pulaski Road. I took this photo looking north from West Kinzie Street, between North Pulaski Road and North Kilbourn Avenue.

Aside from the many visiting locomotives from the freight pool fleet, locomotives from other railroads, as well as those from Chicago's Metra commuter rail operation are serviced here too.
