Eastbound Canadian Pacific freight train passing through the suburban River Grove Illinois Metra commuter rail station. Photographed on December 1st  2006, after the snowstorm stopped falling.

On Friday, December 1st 2006...The entire Chicago area suffered from a heavy Lake Effect Snowstorm that snowed all morning and in to the early afternoon hours.
I took this photo around 3:00 PM that afternoon after the snowfall had came to a stop not long before I took this photo.

We are at the suburban River Grove Illinois Metra commuter rail station on Thatcher Avenue. An eastbound Canadian Pacific freight train passes the station in a Christmas / Holiday card image amongst freshly fallen snow.
