Eastbound Metra morning rush hour commuter train crossing Arlington Heights Road. Arlington Heights Illinois. Monday, April 26th  2010.

I took this photo Monday morning this week, while passing through northwest suburban Arlington Heights Illinois.

An eastbound Metra morning rush hour local, is viewed crossing Arlington Heights Road enroute to downtown Chicago Illinois. The train is operating over the Metra / Union Pacific northwest line from Chicago to Harvard Illinois. Prior to 1995, this railroad line was owned and operated by the now fallen flag railroad Chicago & Northwestern. The Union Pacific acquired the C & N,W through merger in 1995, and absorbed it in to their corporate system.
