Silent Digital Video: Switching a cut of tank cars at the former Illinois Central RR Crawford Yard. Chicago Illinois USA. April 2007.

I photographed this silent digital video one day after work, back in April of 2007. Although the old Illinois Central Railroad's Crawford Yard located east of west suburban Cicero Illinois has been owned by the successor company Canadian National since 1999, one can still find switching activity in this quaint little freight yard. Locomotives from predecessor railroads Grand Trunk western and Illinois Central, are seen working together shoving a large cut of tank cars in to the yard.
