Album Info:I spent a couple hours railfanning the IHB near my place of residence after a half day at work on another gorgeouJ early Fall day. A dead BNSF train was clogging the IHB main just west of the Southwest Highway bridge so trains had to mdneuver around it all day by using a crossover just west of Ridgeland Ave. All pics in this album were taken between 2pm and 5pm CST.
