Westbound Norfolk Southern transfer train waiting for clearance. Cragin Juction. Chicago Illinois USA. June 2007.
I took this photo after work one late afternoon approximately 2 weeks ago. We are at Cragin Junction on Chicago's northside . Located just east of the intersection of Grand and Cicero Avenues near the Metra Grand / Cicero commuter rail station. The train is seen waiting on a hold order on the Belt Railway of Chicago interchange connection track. Cragin Junction is the north terminal for the Belt Railway of Chicago, and interchanges here with the Canadian Pacific ex Milwaukee Road mainline. This was during rush hour, and the train shown here had to wait for several inbound and outbound Metra commuter rail trains to pass.
