Peoria had a J. I. Case Threshing Machine Co. factory in this time period. But
if the photo was taken at Peoria, A Lucas & Sons Architectural Iron Works would
be about where the Case building is in the photo.

Hol - It that's "Case" painted on the factory's brick wall, it might mean
something. Case was, and is, a huge manufacturer of agricultural/industrial
equipment. If Case had a manufacturing plant in Clinton during that era, it
might collaborate that city as being the location. Best Regards - Louis

Anybody know where this photo was taken? It's an early 1950 view, and there
appears to be a turntable ahead of the 502. Through the 1940s and until it was
sold from scrap in May 1954 the 502 was assigned to the Galesburg Division.
Could this view be at Clinton, Iowa? This is another of the George Niles
photos now up for sale on eBay. Thanks for any assistance with this.
