Aurora, Illinois Yards

In this circa 1910 view, we see a switcher locomotive at work in the yards of the Chicago, Burlington, & Quincy Railroad in Aurora, Illinois, interestingly called "The City of Lights". The roundhouse can be seen in the center behind the yard tracks and shops to the left. Note the outside-braced gondola car in the lower right.
