Tory, IN: HOS/Sou Depot during a flood

(Satellite, the river in the background indicates the depot was south of the tracks. The only big rectangle in 1958 that was south of the tracks was east of Harrison Street)

HOS = Hoosier Southern

Troy Depot during a flood. The line still gets flooded to this day.
This may be the foundation of the depot.

The tree overgrowth made me wonder if HOS runs past Polyfreeze. This Southern branch used to run to Cannelton. The 2005 SPV Map shows that HOS is out-of-service past Tell City. It does appear that HOS still runs to tell City because I found rail cars on the south side of town:

There is a tank car in the upper-left and a couple of freight cars in the lower-right.
