Trail Vibe

This section of the Erie-Lackawanna Trail is about as Region-esque as it gets. Don't take this trail for the scenery. It features a nice stroll through a power/gas substation, complete with giant buzzing power lines, and a rail line to the west. After a little residential area, the northern end of the trail crosses the Little Calumet River and works itself over to Kennedy Ave. The trail has a cutover to its continuation through Hammond and Wicker Park.
