Our first train was this inbound commuter train with cab car first , powered by Metra MP36 #404 pushing. The triple tracked "race track" was reasonably busy during the 1 hour of our visit. Two freights, one each way were not photographed while I made a potty stop at the Public Library across the park from the station. |
