Prior to a neighborhood festival in Downers Grove, IL, I shot some rail footage as a warm up for the day’s activities. Here are some highlights:
An eastbound BNSF coal train running near the end of the morning Metra rush hour
A meet between a westbound Metra and an eastbound BNSF Z train
A three way meet which one of the trains was not seen. The unseen train was a single lead baretable train
Two of the Amtrak Illinois Services trains that run between Chicago, IL and Quincy, IL
