Union Station
We are overlooking the southern approach to Union Station in Chicago. Flanking the maintenance-of-way crew are two Burlington Northern commuter trains, or "dinkies", each powered by a classic thoroughbred - an EMD E-8. They looked and sounded great even after they were demoted from their original intercity mission.
August 1978
