| Christian Goepel posted Eric Powell If anyone ever goes tramping around back by the shops today - do it in winter. Plenty of Copperheads back there! Mark Jones Eric Powell , that’s something about those copperheads ! I remember seeing them in Sou IN ( near Milltown ) on my Uncle’s Farm years ago— wouldn’t think they’d be that far north in Palestine, IL?!? Eric Powell Mark Jones Agreed. I used to work for INRD and saw the photo one of our engineering guys took of a big one next to a pile of new ties. The front of the old engine facilities is where materials are stored now. I think the roundhouse location is all overgrown. |

| Richard Koenig posted Palestine, Illinois Here’s a view of the Illinois Central Gulf railroad yard in Palestine, Illinois. The view is toward the east from near where the yard office stood (though on the other side of the tracks). The Wabash River is about two and a half miles down the way at Riverton. One image by Richard Koenig; taken in the winter of 1978-79. |
The yard currently has quite a few cars. I wonder if that is storage or if they handle that many waybill cars.
