Viewing Album:  05/20/07: Elmhurst, IL (A Sunday parade out of Proviso Yard)
 
By:Scott Malec
Dates:5/20/2007 - 5/20/2007
Album Info:I couldn't resist coming back to Elmhurst after a quick stop there yesterday on the way back from Franklin Park Railroad Days. It was an unseasonably cool day after 80 degree temperatures yesterday, but it was worth it due to the frequency of trains. All these pics were taken between 1-3pm and due to camera problems I missed two trains, but still got plenty of pics. A dead period ensued after 3pm followed by a thunderstorm which drove me home.
