Grand Crossing

CN L536 rolls underneath the former LS&MS and PRR (PFW&C) bridges and the Chicago Skyway at Grand Crossing. Before grade separation in 1907, Grand Crossing consisted of 64 diamonds with over 500 train movements a day. In addition, the intersection of 75th and South Chicago was located at grade with the IC just due north of the junction. It was once known as the most dangerous railroad crossing in the world.
