A trio of Milwaukee Road EMD MP 15 yardswitchers at work. Bensenville Illinois. August 1976.

I found this photo recently, at My Link page Fallen Flags.Org located to the right of Your computer screen.

Onr of My favorite Chicago railroads I had grown up with during the 1960's and 70's era, was the former Milwaukee Road.

This photo was taken in August of 1976. We are facing west from on top of the very tall Manheim Road / Illinois U.S Routes # 12 and # 45 overpass bridge, near Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

A trio of Milwaukee Road EMD model MP=15 yard switcher locomotives, are viewed working the nearby Bensenville Yard facility.
