    Nice video Dan! The Grand Trunk Western had a transfer Yard just about a mile to the south of where you were shooting by the steel bridges. My father finally got a regular afternoon engineer switching job at the yard in the early 1980's after working many years at the GTW's Elsdon Yard in Chicago. I can remember how happy he was to be working at Blue Island. It wasn't many years after that the GT sadly closed down it's Chicago Yard's.
