Description:  About an hour after no trains, the Metra from earlier comes back from its trip to Elburn and back. Even though this really isnt a new train, were still counting it has train number 6.

METX 132
Title:  METX 132
Description:  Unfortunately, the PSR way of running a railroad has really killed off traffic levels on the Geneva Sub in recent years, and I knew there was nothing else anywhere close. With it being a holiday, Metra was also running on their weekend schedule. But, since I had nothing better to do, I decided to wait another hour for the next inbound. Right on time, Metra 503 rolled into the station with one of the new scheme F40PH units on the front. Love that these are still being used regularly!

METX 132
Title:  METX 132
Description:  Elburn is the final stop for Metra trains on the Geneva Sub before they head back toward Chicago. So, the station stops there are about 15 minutes. The F40s are known for smoking pretty badly, and this one was no exception as the train began its trek back toward Union Station.

METX 136
Title:  METX 136
Description:  Train Number 13 is a Metra commuter train racing past us. As fast as this train was going it was suprising that it could slow down so fast for its station stop at Lafox a couple of blocks away.

METX 158
Title:  METX 158
Description:  Another set sits a little further behind the double header. Usually, I would grab a shot of all the unused sets for the day sitting underneath the Anderson Road overpass. But, an Elburn cop followed me out of the station, and all around town for that matter. So, that was my sign to leave. Next time.
