I took this photo after work one afternoon in June of 2007.
We are at the west end of the former Illinois Central Crawford Yard at the Chicago city limits. Just out of view to the right of this photo, is the very busy crosstracks at Hawthorne Junction. There were many north and south heavy transfer train movements on the Belt Railway of Chicago libe at the time of this photo.
Once all was clear, the dispatcher granted clearance to proceed across the Belt Railway of Chicago crosstracks, and head west along the CN's former Illinois Central Iowa Division Mainline.
