Eastbound Metra commuter train. La Grange Illinois USA. March 1998.

Eastbound Metra / BNSF Railway commuter train. La Grange Illinois. March 1998.

I took this photo after work one afternoon in March of 1998. The Winter snows of 1998 are melting on this very early Spring day in March of 1998, as an eastbound Metra commuter local enroute to Chicago Union Station, departs from the La Grange Road Amtrak / Metra commuter rail station. This view was photographed looking west along the BNSF Railway 3 track Chicago to Aurora mainline, wich is also refered to as the "Racetrack" by local Chicago area commuters and railfans.
