It's a picture of Old Ben 11 just North of Christopher, IL that I took in the
Fall of 1951, just before the New Orient Coal Mine Disaster Dec. 21, 1951 at
West Frankfort. You can see the original of that photo and a few others at
http://home.comcast.net/~eng95/railroad.htm I worked at the Chistopher tower
several time as a relief agent/operator on the CB&Q, Beardstown Division from
1951 thru 1959. I wish I had taken more pictures.
