I took this photo at South Archer Avenue near Chicago's Midway Airport on a hot summer afternon in August of 2007. A southbound Iowa, Chicago & Eastern freight train enroute to the Belt Railway of Chicago Clearing Yard, crosses the very busy South Archer Avenue. The lead diesel locomotive, is from affiliate railroad Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern. Archer Avenue sees numerous traffic jams here due to the many transfer trains traveling over the Belt Railway of Chicago trackage. Many motorists take West 47th Street north of here, because of an underpass viaduct bridge being handy.Thursday, January 31, 2008
