Stopped by a freight train on Grand Avenue. Elmwood Park Illinois USA. June 2007.

I took this unusual railfan photograph one day at work, back in June of 2007. I was heading east on Grand avenue to a sales call in northwest suburban Elmwood Park Illinois. Unfortunately as You can see, I became stuck in heavy traffic due to a very lenghty and slow moving eastbound Canadian Pacific freight train. Rather than get upset, I briefly stepped out of My car, and took this unique distant train photo looking east on Grand Avenue around 12:30 in the early afternoon.
