Northbound Iowa, Chicago & Eastern RR transfer train passing through Hawthorne Junction. Chicago / Cicero Illinois. January 2007.

Northbound Iowa, Chicago & Eastern transfer train at Hawthorne Junction. Chicago / Cicero Illinois. January 2007.

I took this photo on a sunny but very blustery cold winter morning back in January of 2007. After recieving clearance from the dispatcher, a northbound Iowa, Chicago & Eastern transfer freight train is viewed passing through Hawthorne Junction at the Cicero border. This train is traveling northbound over the Belt Railway of Chicago.

I took this photo under very bright and sunny conditions, but with a sharp wind blowing out of the west. Chicago winter railroading, gotta love it.
