This was the end of a branch that came down from Davis Junction. See Roxbury for more information about this Milwaukee branch that terminated in this town.

Given the curved track and the Milwaukee overpass in the background of the photo, it was the white rectangle in the northwest quadrant of Walnut Street and the IC tracks.
