Pete,
Better look at the trackage. Photo shows two tracks
from one passenger to one freight. Photo shows two
more tracks at that location. The two tracks did not
exist at Shabonna. Still think west of the Depot at
Rochelle works where the trackage is correct.
As to: "Where's his cap????" I have no idea what that
is supposed to mean. Some kind of joke I guess.
