Lined at at LaSalle Street by Craig Sanders Via Flickr: Commuter trains of the former Rock Island Railroad are awaiting their call to duty at Chicago LaSalle Street Station. It is not the peak travel time so there are a lot of trains waiting. (Scanned from a slide)

Bi-levels Row by Craig Sanders Via Flickr: “There are three bi-level gallery cars visible in this scene at LaSalle Street Station in Chicago. Once these tracks hosted trains of the Rock Island, New York Central, and Nickel Plate Road, but on this day there were only commuter trains of the Regional Transportation Authority.”
