WOW, THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL!!! After working Suncast in Batavia, the West Chicago local (R-CHI452) heads back towards Eola Yard in Aurora after they finish their work for the day. The train is seen here rounding a curve coming out of Downtown Batavia as one of Chicagoland’s finest impatient drivers just barely beats the train across the tracks by at least 2 seconds, failing to yield to the train. BNSF 2740, a rebuilt EMD GP39E leads the way back, still wearing its proud cascade green from the Burlington Northern days. HLCX GP38-2 1056 trails.
