Last time I was at this very busy crossing on the Near North Side of Chicago, one of the bells was a Safetran hybrid. Canal Street sees commuter and some Amtrak trains pass through daily. But like so many things having to do with railroads it's nothing like what used to pass through there. Plus, it's been heavily developed recently. It's not quite the photographer's hotspot that it used to be.
