CP Crossing Fullerton Northbound to Peerless Confectionery-Chicago Jan. 20 2004 #1
CP Rail running light up to Peerless Confectionery in the fading daylight of a winter's day. Crossing busy Fullerton Avenue on the former Milwaukee Road Chicago & Evanston (C&E) Line.
Traffic on Fullerton amazingly kept going around the slow moving locomotive until it blasted its horn enough to clear a path.
Here's a view of the signal protection on the north side of Fullerton from 1985 at this location.

On a personal note while photographing this line over the years I used to drop in for lunch to go at the Burger King in the background as well as buy film at the camera store just west of the tracks in the little strip shopping center.
