[CBQ] Aerial photos, Illinois 1939-41

["dr strangelove" <kaiserwillieii0815@yahoo.com>]

I stumbled across these photos. They have been a great help placing buildings 
and track. They are not the clearest of pictures but you can still pick up some 
details. I also compare the pictures with Google Earth where you can get down 
to ground level.  
You can use the shadows of objects to pick out things like coal chutes and 
towers. I have been checking out the track between Waltonville and Valier and I 
am amazed at the number of cars on the tracks back then.
