Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad (NICTD)

The diagram below represents a portion of the South Shore Line. You can select the section of the diagram you are interested in. Clicking on a photograph will give you a photo page about that location on the line. Some of the information in the track diagrams is based of diagrams by Bill Vandervoort available on South Shore Rail Tips Page of the Chicago Transit/Metra Railfan Page, however corrections, yard info and photographs have been added to the diagram, the diagram has been flipped to run West to East, and the focus of the coloring has been changed to elecrification rather than signalling. The photographs on this page and connected pages were taken by James Bellaire. Most were taken September 16th and September 27th, 1998.

Due to a flaw in some browsers the extra wide GIF may not show below - JPG conversion of the GIFs makes the diagram less detailed, so GIFs are prefered for this line art. For smaller graphics see the Station Photo Gallery.
