I went back to DeMotte, Indiana this afternoon and got a few photos at the Historical Society located at 112 Carnation Street SE, Demotte, IN 46310

They moved the old New York Central Depot to the park and added a Caboose on display. I hope you like it. As always, thanks for looking.

I included the grain elevator on the left. It seems the elevator did not survive in this town.
