Southbound Canadian National Railroad transfer train. Hawthorne Junction. Chicago / Cicero Illinois. June 2008.

I took this photo during a June visit to Hawthorne Junction at the Chicago city limits. I am standing on the "Cicero" side of the border immediately west of the Belt Railway of Chicago crosstracks.

A southbound Canadian National transfer freight train has recieved clearance from the railroad dispatcher, and is now heading southbound over the Belt Railway of Chicago enroute to Clearing Yard in Bedford Park Illinois.
