Iowa Interstate is the freight railroad here. Most likey the train was backing up near Robbins to connect with IHB in Blue Island.

[larry84988]

I figured it would be, but I guess we'll never know.

Ooh! A freight train! Lol Nice caboose there on the end of the freight! Why'd the train move up and then stop and return in the same direction?

[larry84988]

I don't really know, I would think it was because of the Metra coming in, the Metra appeared about 30 seconds after the freight left.
