Guys,
Someone posted this link to the Yahoo group MFCL (modern freight car list).
http://www.pjv101.net/film_bw/fldrbw08.htmThis is an Austrailian historian and he has tons of railroad pics from a 1979 trip to the U.S. Lots of nice Chicago shots. Some cool shots from Sears Tower of Grand Ave. and State St. yards. The Tribune printing plant looks to be under construction. Lots of tankers in Grand Ave. yard for Blommer and Newsprint cars in State St. yard for Sun Times.
Unfortunately no Kingsbury or Goose Island. Supposedly he still has many more to scan. Be prepared to spend several hours checking these out. The Chicago pics start film 1427
