It’s the afternoon of New Year’s Eve afternoon, Sunday, December 31, 2022, at Metra’s Ogilvie Transportation Center, in Chicago, Illinois. Originally this was the Chicago passenger station of the Chicago & North Western Railway. Their station here is gone, and the current Ogilvie Transportation Center station is a ground floor with shops and restaurants and the upper level has the stub end tracks, a small waiting room, and the Metra ticket agents.
First up we see a Metra EMD F40PH-3 locomotive doing some back and forth switching moves.
Next we see a Chicago Loop bound Chicago Transit Authority elevated train on a bridge that goes over the tracks leading into Metra’s Ogilvie Transportation Center.
Finally, we have a look at the Union Pacific Railroad EMD GP38-2 or GP38N locomotive that is sitting at the Ogilvie Transportation Center station, ready to provide any necessary switching of the Metra commuter trains.
