The people handling must have been at least as bad as the train switching. I see the original McCormick Place is built. Is that weeds on the IC mainline ROW. Can't be. Must have been something wrong with his camera! Another great shot in a great series.

It should be noted that the observation car in the picture is "Memphis," a PS 2 DBR - 2 Comp - 1 DR sleeper - lounge observation car. This car was destroyed not long after this image was taken.
