CRL 903 & LLPX 1503 |
Description: |
My first Chicago Rail Link sighting sneaks up behind me as I was lining up a string of idling IAIS units for a shot. Obviously CRL still hasn't gotten around to repainting that thing. |

The stopped freight on the IHB at Dolton was annoying me so I shot over to Cottage Grove Ave and got this shot along the IHB. They were lined up like this all day. Keep in mind that the NS freight is stopped barely half a mile ahead of the UP auto rack train. |
