A northbound suburban Pace bus at the intersection of South Cicero Avenue and West 63rd Street. Chicago Illinois. November 2015.

I took this photograph recently one day at work, back in 

November of 2015.

We are facing north on South Cicero Avenue. I was driving 

my assigned bus to the arrivals terminal at Chicago's own

Midway International Airport, when I was now being

stopped by a red traffic signal.

Seen through the front windshield of my bus, is a northbound

suburban Pace bus, waiting at the intersection of South Cicero

Avenue and West 63rd Street. This Pace bus, is enroute to the

Midway Airport CTA / Pace transit station ahead.
