| C&EI Historical Society via RailroadGloryDays "This is how the building looked ca 1900. Employees are not identified, but the man in the bowler hat might well be the Yardmaster. Note the awnings and the multiple telegraph connections." |
I think some of the tracks have been removed, but CSX still has quite a few tracks and, according to a satellite image, they are occupied.

I presume the yard office is the building just south of Brewer Road+Illini Drive.

This was the classification yard. The engine servicing facility was in the Oaklawn Shops.
