I took a small trip to Chicagoland to meet up with my friend, SantaFe669, and do some railfanning again. On Friday we hung around at Franklin Park, Illinois and managed to see a good amount of trains in the span of a few hours. Most notably Metra 405 and 402 paired up, a Metra F59PHI and F59PH duo, among several other trains. It was a relatively nice day outside and I had some fun seeing my first Canadian Pacific trains. With that said, here's what I managed to see!
