This is background stock footage, taken from a Pennsylvania Railroad train coming into Chicago some time in the early 1940's.
0:20 The clip begins near the intersection of South Archer Avenue and South Canal Street. The train is headed north, and we're looking west towards the south branch of the Chicago River.
0:32 A switch engine and caboose are hiding behind a Chicago & Eastern Illinois boxcar and caboose.
0:40 The large building belongs to the Cuneo Press. We also get a brief glimpse of a second, smaller building behind it, also belonging to them.
0:49 As we cross Cermak Road, we can see the Cermak Road Bridge, a double leaf Scherzer rolling lift bridge. Across the river is the Thomson and Taylor spice warehouse. The bridge, the spice warehouse and the smaller Cuneo building are now part of an historic district.
1:09 Now we cross the Santa Fe main line.
1:13 The Canal Street bridge, another Scherzer rolling lift, is open. It was replaced in 1949.
1:20 Now we cross the river on Pennsylvania Railroad Bridge 466, a vertical lift bridge built in 1914 and a Chicago landmark. Notice its shadows on the ground.
1:41 We just went under the 18th Street overpass.
1:42 Passing the Schoenhofen Brewery complex. The building with the square brick tower was the power house, and is one of two buildings still standing on the site. Both are national historical landmarks.
1:52 This is the big T junction where the Burlington's east-west tracks come in.
2:00 The briefest of glimpses of a Pennsylvania Railroad locomotive there. Almost all the Pennsylvania's passenger rolling stock is in Fleet-of-Modernism livery, designed by Raymond Loewy. Introduced in 1938, it was phased out after the war.
2:04 These two overpasses connect to the St. Charles Air Line Bridge and the Baltimore & Ohio Chicago Terminal Railroad bridges, both behind us.
2:26 A Burlington Pacific flashes by. The Burlington passenger cars with open end platforms are part of their commuter fleet.
2:49 One of the Burlington's early diesels, an EMD, awaits a call.
2:57 Passing under Roosevelt Road.
Thanks to Oren B. Helbok for some of the locomotive ID's.
