BRC Clearing Yard is the biggest classification yard in all of Chicago. You can find multiple hump jobs busy working the yard during the day. This morning was no exception after seeing two hump job sets meet twice in a short time.

After a little birdie alerted us to a Belt Railway Extra in care of 3 orange South Shore Freight Geeps, my bro and I knew it was only proper to make a stop and lens this guy. Under the care of engineer Kevin Vahey, their 15 cars of freight roll through the back alleys of the blue collar neighborhoods of Hammond, Indiana. With a good deal of leased power on the roster, its always refreshing to catch a solid 3 pack of "oranges."

One of my favorite art installations from last year returned to the playa again this year: the Big Round Cubatron by Mark Lottor. Still photography doesn't quite do it justice...because the colors and patterns of the lights are continually changing...and it's mesmerizing, simply mesmerizing. And beautiful.

The neat and trim little brick houses of the West Lawn neighborhood border the yard here.
