Railfanning Metra and Amtrak on Chicago's Near South Side

Descriptions of each train are in the captions in the video. Got some pretty good action today in and around Amtrak and Metra's Canal St Yard and shop complex, mostly from above on the 18th St bridge. Seen are various switching moves in the yard, Metra Heritage Corridor, Rock Island District, BNSF and Southwest Service trains, plus Amtrak's California Zephyr, with some views from the CTA Orange Line, and up-close, in Chinatown next to the diamonds at Canal St, just south of the lift bridge leading to the yard, all in great views of the Loop skyline.
