Westbound Burlington Northern RR commuter local leaving the Metra / Cicero Avenue commuter rail flagstop depot. Cicero Illinois USA. June 1986.

A real blast from the past would describe this 1980's era Chicagoland railfan's photograph.
Believe Me....I am so glad I took this when I did.
A westbound Metra / Burlington Northern commuter local to Aurora Illinois, is seen leaving the Cicero Avenue commuter rail flagstop depot in west suburban Cicero Illinois. The bridge in the background, is West Ogden Avenue, formerly old U.S Route # 66. The bridge was removed and Ogden Avenue relocated during the 1990's. The old Burlington northern 1953 vintage EMD E-9
locomotives like the one seen here, were retired in September of 1992. In 1995, the Burlington Northern and the Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe merged and became todays BNSF Railway.
This is an example of how You can capture and document local history on film for others to see.
