ANother "new" Dearborn photo
« on: November 21, 2013, 04:34:01 pm »
Found another interesting, MONON related photo on the Classic Trains magazine website.  It's an rather unique view from the legendary 12th St./Roosevelt Road overpass of the C&EI freight house adjacent to Dearborn Station.  In the rear center can be seen the MONON freighthouse standing next to the Dearborn trainshed.  No date was given, but the absence of the famous "Lee" sign and the proliferation of wooden boxcars screams "1940's".
