CHICAGO HEAVY RAIL
Lines Cross

This image is again from the observatory at what was then the Sears Tower, and provides an aerial perspective of the area where the Orange Line crosses over the Red Line.  There are two trains in view, one on each line. 

The Orange goes left-right toward the bottom of the photo, and the rear car of one of its runs is directly above the Red Line tracks in this view.  A southbound train on the Red is at the Cermak-Chinatown station, and will soon pass beneath the Orange, and then into the subway.  The tracks that run generally parallel to the Red Line see Metra commuter rail activity.
