Former Illinois Central diesel locomotives on the head end of a Canadian National freight train. Crawford Yard. Chicago Illinois. June 2007.

I took this photograph after work one day, back in June of 2007.

A westbound Canadian National freight train being led by two former Illinois Central Railroad EMD roadswitcher locomotives, waits for clearance to depart from the former Illinois Central Crawford Yard in Chicago near Cicero Illinois.

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