From the Window of a Train: METRA IC
Author: bandob

Just a few shots from the METRA Electric, all taken on Sunday, Sept. 30, 2007. Report on new railfan platform at Homewood, IL, will follow later on "Railfan Reports."

1) Soldier Field under attack by flying saucer.

2) What one finds at the University of Chicago.

3) The Pullman Company works in Pullman, IL.

Hmm?

Is Pullman still turning out corten steel passenger cars with stainless steel covers?

I don't know the area at all, but the tower looks like a firefighter training tower.
