Southern Pacific "Daylight" GS-4 4-8-4 (built by Lima in 1941) blasts through Downers Grove, Illinois on the Twin Cities to Chicago leg of its journey from Portland, OR to Owosso, MI where it will be an honored guest at the train festival there. This is the Forest Avenue crossing in Downers Grove on the BNSF (ex-BN, nee CB&Q) "racetrack."
@dwkcamman611 - I don't see him being phased by the train roaring by... for the first few seconds you look at him and he's like "WOW!" at the train. Sure, it must've been tough on his ears, and I have sympathy for that, but I'm happy to see he saw what a REAL train is!! :D
