After dropping Jan at a bookstore near the University of Chicago campus, I headed to the 57th Street station of the Metra Electric.

The first train was an outbound train, thankfully on the tracks between the platforms.

Next was this outbound train.

A inbound train is next up and on the outside track with Amtrak using the far track.

 
Which met this inbound train.

The Hyde Park Historical Society is located in this former IC electric building under the elevation for the 55-56-57th Street station.

This CFD Tower Ladder 37 was on a emergency call as it passed me while waiting for Jan to shop at the bookstore.
In a few minutes it returned.

While waiting this South Shore outbound train is seen stopping at the 55-56-57St Street station while I waited.

Several Metra trains and an Amtrak northbound train passes while I waited for her to shop at the bookstore.

While in Toledo, we visited the art museum where I took this photo.

This is the building once used by a Kodak Processing lab, 1100 East Main Cross Street, Findlay, OH 45840. Many of you probably sent Kodachrome here for processing. I began in 1963.

While passing the UP yard at Dupo, IL, I shot this southbound train.
