This slide show on Chicago Tribune has an old picture of the field with the Milwaukee Road tracks in front. The tracks appear to be well maintained and it kind of shows how different operations on the line must have been in those days, double tracked with a crossing gate. Looks more like a main line than a dilapidated industrial branch.
Good thing we don\'t have the Chicago Whales around any more.
