Eastbound Union Pacific transfer train. Hayford Junction. Chicago Illinois. March 1985.

I took this photo during a March 1985 visit to Hayford Junction on Chicago's southwest side in the Ashburn neighborhood.

An eastbound Union Pacific transfer train is viewed traveling over the Belt Railway of Chicago, and approaching the Grand Trunk Western crosstracks at Hayford Junction.
Notice the blue Missouri Pacific Railroad locomotive acquired by the Union Pacific through merger in 1982.
