BNSF Railway EMD SW 1200 switcher at work in a Metra coach yard maintenance facility. Chicago Illinois. September 2006.

I took this photograph looking down from the south side of the West Roosevelt Road overpass bridge near downtown Chicago Illinois.

A BNSF Railway EMD SW 1200 yard switcher locomotive, is busy spotting Metra commuter coaches at the BNSF operated Metra coach yard and maintenance facility just east of South Canal Street. This facility, srvices Metra locomotives and commuter coaches assigned to the Metra / BNSF Railway's 3 track Chicago to Aurora Illinois mainline.
