Viewing Album:  04/14/07: Elmhurst, IL (and a stop at the Berkeley Metra Station)
 
By:Scott Malec
Dates:4/14/2007 - 4/14/2007
Album Info:Another cloudy and cold Saturday brings me to Elmhurst for my second visit, and one of these days I'd like to be here when the sun is shining. It seems that traffic here is most intense between 1-4pm, as a constant parade of trains was coming in and out of Proviso Yard. I also got a closer look at Proviso at the Berkeley Metra Station.
