Viewing Album: 05/25/07: Berwyn, IL (Metrafest...plus some shots from Bridgeview and Bedford Park)

By:	Scott Malec
Dates:	5/25/2007 - 5/25/2007
Album Info:	I'm on vacation so I hit a few of the usual spots today and was treated to a beautiful day with a ton of trains. I had never railfanned Berwyn on a weekday until today and was witness to an endless parade of Metra trains along with Amtrak and BNSF freights with plenty of foreign power. This album also includes a rare pure GT lashup on the CN main just outside of Glenn Yard in Chicago.
