The 2 foot narrow guage Brookfield, Salt Creek & Western Railroad train opeating at Chicago's Brookfield Zoo. Brookfield Illinois. October 1984., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.
I took this photograph, way back in October of 1984.
From 1967 until 1985, Chicago's Brookfield Zoo once featured this mostly steam powered 2 foot narrow guage railroad, that circled the out perimeter of the zoo in a counter clockwise rotation.
The train has just left the north boarding station, and is viewed now heading westbound alongside the north walking path.
The Brookfield Zoo train is preserved today, at the Hesston Steam Museum nea Michigan City Indiana. www.hesston.org
