I took this unique ariel photograph after work one day, from the south Central Avenue overpass bridge in west suburban Stickney Illinois. This is the locomotive enginehouse and servicing shop, for the Greater Chicago Water Reclamation Districts plant on west 39th Street / Pershing Road. In the background behind the two green 1951 vintage EMD SW-1 yard switchers, is the Chicago city skyline. This industrial railroad hauls processed solid sewer waste product, to various dumpsites alongside the I-55 Stevenson Expressway in the areas near Hodgkins -Countryside -and Willow Springs Illinois.Friday, May 18, 2007
