Viewing Album:  Chicago Thanksgiving 2010
 
By:Atlanta Rails
Dates:11/24/2010 - 11/24/2010
Album Info:For thanksgiving 2010 I made a trip to Chicago to visit relatives in the area. I spent the first day, 11/24 in Franklin Park after getting off the plane. The weather was crap and I was freezing but caught some good power. After I had enough of the Chicago weather I headed to Union Station to shoot trains in the comfort of the trainshed, scoring the grand prize of Metra 614 Edward Barbarec, one of the last two F40C's.
