Cazenovia, IL: GM&O Depot

Waiting at the Cazenovia Depot!  No date on photo!
Alan Fricker: I think this photo was taken about 1910 or so. The clues are the box cars-they have truss rods with a turnbuckle to tighten once in a while to prevent the cat from sagging in the middle. From the way the sitting man is dressed, it's hard to tell exactly how he's dressed, other than he's wearing work clothes and not his Sunday best.

It looks like the depot was north of Main Street and the grain elevator was south of it. The grain elevator did not survive. Probably because this GM&O branch was abandoned around the middle of the 20th Century.
