CNW 6804 East Wood St Extra, Clinton, Iowa; Sept 4, 1978_
Eastbound extra piggy back train destined for the ramp at Wood Street in downtown Chicago. They are about to bang across the diamond crossing with the Milwaukee Road at Second Street Tower. Clinton was such a cool place back in the day and I got to witness a lot of it early in my rail photography as my Mon liked to shop here. It was a 30 mile drive from our house in Illinois and I always liked crossing the big bridge over the Mississippi River coming into Clinton. She would drop me off near the BN-RI station and return a few hours later. This is a B&W conversion of a crappy Ektachrome 64 slide scan.
