Viewing Album:  03/11/07: Dolton, IL (Never a Dull Moment)
 
By:Scott Malec
Dates:3/11/2007 - 3/11/2007
Album Info:The crossing was dead when I got there and for the first half hour nothing happened. But then the action seemed to explode with a continuous parade of trains going through the crossing on all lines in all directions. All the shots in this album were taken between 2:15pm and 5pm CST.
