Bill's Old Grain Elevator: (Satellite)
I could not find the location for Andy's old grain elevator.
Current elvators: (Satellite)
The town has a big grain elevator given taht there is no rail service.

| Don Crimmin commneted on the post Here is an image I took on 9-26-77 of the westbound Springfield to Beardstown local led by B&O GP9 5938 and GP30 3557 at Ashland, IL. Note the "STOP" board along the train several cars behind the locomotives protecting the GM&O "Jack" line. While this image was made 69 years after the first B&W shot, 46 years have passed since I made the color one. Dennis DeBruler: I'm glad you captured the old grain elevator as well. |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Larry's comment The 1938 aerial that I found is different. For example, all of the white dots that are north of Bill's grain elevator, which is across the B&O tracks from the station, are not in my copy. But I have not been able to find Andy's grain elevator in either aerial photo. https://clearinghouse.isgs.illinois.edu/webdocs/ilhap/county/data/cass/flight9/00sd11858.jpg |
