A former Illinois Central gray 1990's era boxcar in transit at the 31st Street IHB railroad crossing. La Grange Park Illinois USA. May 2007.

I took this photo one lovely Springtime morning in May of 2007.

Although the Illinois Central was absorbed through merger with the Canadian National back in 1999, You can still find an occasional remnant or two from this now fallen flag railroad still rolling around. I spotted this simple gray 1990's era Illinois Central boxcar, traveling northbound on a Canadian National transfer train. The train is viewed crossing west 31st Street in west suburban La Grange Park Illinois, over the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad line.
