This is the first time I have seen an open freight handling platform. The horse&buggy and train order signals indicate it was taken in the early 20th century.
A current map indicates the town no longer has train service. In my 1928 RR Atlas, the route is marked M&O (Mobile and Ohio?). This reminded me that the GM&O route between St. Louis and Chicago is marked Alton. So GM&O was formed from Chicago & Alton and M&O after 1928.
