Archie,
Unless it's a new pic, I've got a copy myself. It's wonderful for the
office-end detail. What I'm still lacking is the trackside (south) wall where
the freight doors were. I didn't know there was a track that ran between the
building and the bluff. I assumed that's where the trucks would pull up. Do
you know anything else about the building or how it was served?

Duncan, Have you seen the great photo of the Rock Island freight house in
Keokuk? Go to Rob Adams web site of the K&WRR and look under the K&W pictures.
There was a stub track on each side of the building coming in from a south lead
and they held 6 to 8 cars. Archie

Still getting used to there being two lists, and sorry for the mulitple posts
to those who subscribe to several.
I'm ready to start building a model of the Wabash/CRIP freight house in
Keokuk, Iowa. I have a few photos that show the ends of the building, but
nothing that shows the trackside in detail. I was wondering if anyone had any
personal recollections of the building, sources for photos, or even any
suggestions based on knowledge of similar structures. Best guesses will have to
do in the absence of anything else.
Thanks for any assistance that is possible.
