You should definitely be able to see a few freight trains on the CSX River Sub, across the Hudson River from the Amtrak route.

Requires a credit card (to pay for it) and a finger print (to lock it/unlock it). When entering from the Great Hall, the lockers are the first hallway on the right, the room on the left. The Metropolitan Lounge in Chicago has recently changed, so I don't know how secure the luggage is now; before you walked in the door and the luggage storage was to your immediate left which didn't strike me as all that secure.I can't see why anyone would want to use the expensive lockers when the metropolitan lounge storage room is available. Personally, I like the the setup in the new lounge, which I should point out is identical to DC and NY. Having to get in line every time you needed to get something in or out of your luggage was a PITR. Just as in DC and NY, the lounge staff keeps a close eye on the luggage room.
