I took this photo one very cold January morning, in west suburban Berwyn Illinois. This is the very busy BNSF Railway ex Burlington Northern Chicago to Aurora 3 track mainline refered to as the Racetrack. This scene is looking northwest at the railroad crossing on South Harlem Avenue / Illinois U.S Route # 43 just east of Riverside Illinois. This is an example of just how busy this mainline can be during the morning rush hour. There are many express commuter trains whipping through here at high speed, as well as a handfull of stop and go local trains.
