Oswego, IL: CB&Q Depot

(Satellite, the land is now occupied by a parking lot)

Note that the train order signal mast is not just near the bay window, it is in the bay window. Also note the grain elevator in the background. This was probably the CB&Q's Ottawa, Oswego & Fox River Valley RR.

Jeff Kehoe: Our local historian, Roger Matile, says the town had a chance to preserve it, didn't get 'er done and let it get torn down about 1972.
