I know the GT Elsdon Yard was a few miles north of Hayford, but the main tracks curved east a little north of 51st and they also had access to the Santa Fe Corwith Yard.
Do you know if the former Grand Trunk Western main has seen any traffic or any use anymore since the CN transferred usage to CSX north of Hayford Junction?
any locals give you any trouble around Hayford? That neighborhood isn't the same it was 10-15 years ago. I assume you walked part of the way since you were on the Pace bus?

@TBirdSCIL The neighborhood isn't as nice as it used to be, but it's still relatively fine during the day. I've never had any trouble at Hayford.
@TBirdSCIL And yes I walked. I took the Pace 383 to Ford City Mall to the CTA #79 and walked from 79th & Central Park to the junction.
79th & Kedzie I used to live right there. Neighborhood is complete garbage now. All kinds of crazy shit happened on that viaduct you were filming on.
@TBirdSCIL I have been to Hayford a few times and never had any trouble.
Where is Wrightwood? Is that around 79th St?
David Bonnema Kedzie & Southwest Hwy
@Nachtwolf1 - Last time I was there I was verbally harassed by some local youths from their porch. No imminent danger...just incredibly annoying.
I hate 2516's paint scheme.
