Rochelle, IL: The First Power Plant

(Satellite, it was located next to Spring Lake)

I'm sure the belts come from the flywheels of reciprocating steam engines.

Rochelle Flagg Township Museum posted two photos with the comment: "Rochelle's first power plant was located next to Spring Lake. Herman Hawkinson, Louie Bervey, Elsie Rhodes and Joe Silllsby were employees."
