Viewing Album:  12/09/06: SW Chicago, IL (Various Locations inc. the BRC Gestapo)
 
By:Scott Malec
Dates:12/9/2006 - 12/9/2006
Album Info:Today I decided to hit several hot spots in the area instead of just staying at one place. This album includes shots from 71st Street in Bridgeview, 63rd and Archer in Summit, Columbus Ave and Landers Yard in Chicago, and the BRC engine facilities at Clearing Yard where I was able to take one picture before a BRC cop pulled me over and issued me a trespassing warning. He was cool though and understood that railfans are not there to cause trouble.
