| Randy Anders posted Here a shot of the yard taken in 2005 David Jordan More business in those days. D Scott Kramer also posted Here's an aerial view of the TP&W yard and shops at East Peoria, IL. Not sure of the year on this one, but thought everyone might enjoy seeing it. Junior Hill Nice view. Early 2000s for sure, during the early Rail America era.. Intermodal was still moving, Gp20's from the previous 2 owners were still present, turntable was still intact. David JordanDavid and 1 other manage the membership, moderators, settings, and posts for Fans of the Toledo, Peoria & Western Railway. 2003, I think. The first Rail America red, white and blue units arrived in 2000 to replace leased units and the older GP20s. Both are visible. Joshua Sheehan Around 2001. I see a Morton train being assembled on the lead. There are two Libby’s cars in that cut. I also see three Federal Warehouse cars in the yard. |

| Dennis DeBruler replied to Robert's question The roundhouse was north of the turntable. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.6709889,-89.5448841,126m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en&entry=ttu |

| Roger Holmes posted It's Spring of 1980 and NKP 765 has made its way from Ft. Wayne to East Peoria after an extensive rebuilding and will make numerous trips on the Toledo, Peoria & Western in freight and passenger/excursion service...also seen working switching cars and pushing a couple of trains up Washington Hill. The photo shows TP&W 103 on the East Peoria turntable while the Berk is being prepped for the day's work. Hard to believe that it will be 37 years since my Nikon captured this image! © Roger A.

| John Stell posted, cropped TP&W Yard Office building at East Peoria Yard on 5-19-76. Tracks in foreground are the RIP Tracks. The white 1976 Chevy Chevette was mine and I would need a shoe horn to get in it today. John Stell slide. |
I saved this photo because of the building in the background. Was it a freight house?
