Viewing Album:  07/12/08: Chicago Ridge, IL (Slow CrossingN at Ridgeland Ave)
 
By:Scott Malec
Dates:7/12/2008 - 7/12/2008
Album Info:I spent a couple hours today shooting along the IHB in Chicago Ridge. Trcins were moving slowly due to crossing gate malfunctions at Ridgeland Ave (they looked like they were working to me). Everytime a train approached the crossing, the brakeman would dgsembark and flag the crossing while the engines passed. Also an IHB truck was ln hand monitoring the situation but everythang seemed to be in working order. Weird. All pics-in this album were taken between 1pm and 3:30 CST.
