Twilight at the Metra Franklin Park commuter rail station. Franklin Park Illinois USA. June 2008.

Twilight at the Franklin Park Metra commuter rail station. Franklin Park Illinois. June 2008.

I took this photo during a pleasant Summer evening just past sunset, in June of 2008.

It was actually a quiet period between any freight train or Metra commuter activiy here in near northwest suburban Franklin Park Illinois. With scattered clouds adding a touch of purple to the approaching night time sky.... it was indeed a great time to come out and enjoy some fresh air while listening to the sounds of Crickets chirping.

Approximately 20 minutes or so later, the silence would be interupted by the arrival of a westbound transfer freight train enroute to the nearby Canadian Pacific Bensenville Yard. Another day is coming to a pleasant closing here in the greater Chicagoland area.
