Canadian National yard switching activity with fallen flag predecessor railroad locomotives. Crawford Yard. Chicago Illinois. April 2007.

I took this photo back in early April of 2007.

Locomotives from the former Illinois Central and the Grand Trunk Western Railroads, are viewed switching large cuts of tank cars at the Canadian National Railroad's former Illinois Central / Chicago & Illinois Western RR Crawford Yard on the near southwest side of Chicago Illinois.

In 2011, the Canadian National Railroad closed Crawford Yard and removed the tracks.
