In US Marshalls, broadcast last night, a foot chase began in a graveyard in Queens, crossed a railroad in Chicago, and continued, supposedly, in Queens.
The railroad was recognizably in the Chicago area because:
- The train was painted in Metra’s colors.
- The old Chicago and North Western Railroad, now owned by the UP and whose tracks are used by Metra, was/is a “left-handed” railroad (like British roads are “left-handed”), with the trains operating on the tracks opposite of those used by most American railroads, which ride on the right (in both senses of the word) side of the railroad.
So, which is more pathetic, that I noticed it or that I felt I had to share it with you?
