    Nope, I didn't shop this year, I went out to Franklin Park and Bensenville to see the action there, and I was very pleasantly surprised! Following are train descriptions, in chronological order:
    Train 1:
    Inbound Metra Milwaukee District- West Line train #2232, led by cab car #8517 and powered by newly-rebuilt F40PH-3 #216, leaves Franklin Park and heads through the interlocking towards Chicago.
    Train 2:
    CN/GTW GP38-2 #5845 pulls a cut of tanks out of an industry across from the junction at B-12...
    Train 3:
    ...while a Canadian Pacific manifest coming from the Belt Railway of Chicago at Cragin Junction, led by Soo Line SD60 #6035 and CP SD40-2 #5958, comes around the curve, across the CN/WC diamonds, and joins the IHB connection, crossing over to the close track to terminate its train in Bensenville Yard. Check out the old-school Southern Pacific hi-cube boxcar, and the cars from Pan-Am Railways and the Guilford System. Meanwhile, CN #5845 finishes up its switching duties and returns to Schiller Park Yard.
    Train 4:
    Outbound Metra MD-W train #2215, led by MP36PH-3S #417, crosses CN/WC at B-12 and heads toward the Franklin Park station and ultimately, Elgin.
    ~~Much more to see in parts 2 and 3!~~

    @electroscribe Thanks jerk... I'm using a hand-held camera with no provision for such a filter. If you want to tell me how to shoot my videos, go make your own instead.

    Interesting, seeing that SP cube car, figured it would have been scrapped years ago. Just saying.
