Awesome severe thunderstorm. thunderstorms in America heavy-er than in Europe.

I heard one too. I guess they figure that Chicago gets so many storms that they can handle it.

Yup, that's a train blowing its horn. They do that every day, rain or shine.

I think I heard a train somewhere around 2:30 into the film. How can trains be operating during a severe thunderstorm like this?

I don't see it. It could just be raindrops on the window.
