Time Capsule-Video of Chicago in 1969
« on: January 24, 2015, 07:21:36 PM »
Though it is not specific to railroads in Chicago I thought folks might want to check out this video which was converted from Super 8 film taken in 1969 (no, I did not shoot it though I feel old sometimes!  ;)).  There are railroad shots scattered throughout.

Downtown Chicago changed very little from 1969 until the building boom of the 1980s.  The main exception was the Sears Tower of course.
