| William A. Shaffer posted Relay Depot E. St. Louis, IL (Photo by Jack Roberson - Collection of William A. Shaffer) Can anyone identify this building? I think it is Relay Depot. Jim Ripley: Yes The bridge is the approach to the Veterans now King Bridge. Mike Sypult shared Mark Feldmann: West end of the L&N yard? Dennis Smith: Relay depot had lots of trouble there in a war zone. [I presume that was gang warfare.] |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Mark's comment This map shows the L&N yard was south of the Eads Bridge, whereas the King Bridge is north of the Eads Bridge. It looks like it was west of the Pennsy/Vandalia Yard. https://www.flickr.com/photos/barrigerlibrary/50994449212/in/album-72157718488419592/ |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Mark's comment This topo map is consistent with the building being next to a connector to the west end of the Vandalia Yard. 1968 Granite City Quadrangle @ 1:24,000 [Dennis DeBruler] |
