1971

Erie [Erie Lackawanna]
Hammond, Indiana (State Line Crossing)
June 17, 1971




This eastbound Erie Lackawanna freight has just left Chicago & Western Indiana rails and entered shared Erie/Chesapeake & Ohio trackage. It will finally regain Erie rails at Griffith, Indiana. The tracks to the left belong to the Nickel Plate Road (Norfolk & Western). Tracks crossing left to right in the foreground belong to the Baltimore & Ohio, with the Indiana Harbor Belt crossing just past the tower.
