Empty thermos - a photo on Flickriver

Empty thermos

            Some MofW equipment gets to ride front and center on CSX train M500 (Nashville, TN, to Riverdale, IL, Barr Yard, manifest) as it heads through the new southwest quadrant connection at Thornton Jct. in South Holland, Illinois from UP's former C&EI/MoPac-L&N Villa Grove Sub to CSX's former GTW Elsdon Sub. 

I suspect Thornton Jct. had its name from the village by that name to the south before the village of South Holland annexed this far south and grabbed up this land.

The wooden armstrong lever tower that controlled the diamond here lasted into the 1980's, possibly the 1990's(?).
