While on a fan trip, car 4272 leads a four-car train of 4000s into the Buena
Interchange Yard next to Graceland Cemetery south of
Montrose Avenue on August 6, 1972. Freight was interchanged
here between the Milwaukee Road and various customers along
the North Side main line, Evanston, and Skokie branches
beginning in 1920. Less than a year later, freight service
would cease and the yard eventually fell into disuse. (Photo by Bruno Berzins, Collection of Joe
