Eastbound Metra express commuter train at sunset. Elmwood Park Illinois USA. October 2007.

I took this photo one evening after work, at the railroad crossing on 75th Avenue in Elmwood Park Illinois. Another work day is coming to an end, as an inbound Metra express commuter train enroute to Chicago Union Station heads toward downtown Chicago Illinois. This is on the Canadian Pacific ex Milwaukee Road commuter line to Elgin Illinois. This line also sees commuter trains from Metra's Northern Central commuter line to Antioch Illinois. The Northern Central trains interchange from this line iat Franklin Park Illinois, and head northbound over the Canadian National ex Soo Line / Wisconsin Central tracks.
