Track Inspectors Ford pick up truck. The Belt Railway of Chicago. 55th St Junction. January 2007.

I was passing by one of My old High School days railfan hangouts from My Curie High School days, and stopped to see how 55th Street Junction near Midway Airport looks like these days.
Luckily I photographed the tower back in April of 1984, because it was demolished by 1990.
Seen here heading south to Clearing Yard at 70th and Knox Street, is a BRC Maintenance dept foreman about to pass over the crosstracks.
I attended nearby Curie High School from the years of 1977 to 1981. 55Th Street Jct is a much different place in 2007.
