“Freight Train Heading Away from Navy Pier” is incorrect. I have seen this general view in other photos. This view is looking south from Chicago Avenue just east of Halsted street.The iron viaduct in the view was Erie Street. You can tell where this view is because the Merchandise Mart is on the left and the Chicago Board of Trade is the second tower from the right on the horizon. I am certain of this.
