Thank you Will, for continuing to keep this going, and thanks to all of you photographers for contributing. Even some STEAM this week. Where is the 5550 on display?
Ha! "Twinkie". It's the first one I've seen. I'd have loved to have spent more time at Duplainville and hope to return someday. Today, you'd never know where the tower once stood. It was staffed by MILW Operators, new in 1929 (replaced the original lost in a fire) and was closed in 1987.
I have an interesting SOO train order in my collection. Cannot recall if I had ever uploaded it. The "leverman" copied it as "Dulpainville". I have always wondered if that was a reflection on how his day was going.... I am also curious as to where the depot stood. Yes. At some point in earlier years there was one. I have a photo.
Oh, neat! I'd love to see it when you are able to scan it. I have this book and want to look through it again to see what at Duplainville might be in it. I don't have Volume I though.
