It’s the late afternoon of Thursday, February 23, 2023, at Chicago Union Station..
We start on a station platform of the South Concourse and see commuters boarding Metra Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Line train number 1253, departing on time at 4:30 pm. Train 1253 runs express from Chicago Union Station to Downers Grove Main Street station, then makes all stops to Metra’s Aurora, Illinois Transportation Center, Belmont, Lisle, Naperville, Route 59 then the Aurora Transportation Center.
We then take a walk through the South Concourse, then up to the upper level (food court), then down to the North Concourse, ending at the Great Hall of Chicago Union Station.
Always a treat to watch the march of the penguins !
John, thanks 😊 for the idea!

@@russellsharptrainvideos I think it would have lots of appeal if you could capture Christmas morning at Union Station showing the long distance trains arriving. Throw in rush hour on Christmas eve , penguins scurrying home getting ready for the holiday.
@@johnalder6028 John, I’ll print out your reply as a reminder.

@@russellsharptrainvideos Santa Fe engine 3415 is good for another year so will be hauling excursion trains on weekends this summer in Kansas. Enterprise kansas if I recall correctly. Might be worth filming a Santa Fe steam engine in action.

I took Amtrak from Lansing Michigan to Union Station a couple weeks ago. I began to wonder if they were going to rename it Fanduel Station. It’s like the station is now being sponsored by them. 😁
Edward, yes, that appears to be the case.

Last time i was there the McDonald's had a train theme. Lots of pictures of Chicago trains from the past. Is it still the same?
Run the film backwards to see the morning march of the penguins. 😆
John, funny 😄!
