Small tower on Pennsylvania RR in Vandalia, IL |
Description: |
Date approximate. This small tower was on the north side of the Pennsylvania tracks between 5th and 6th streets. This view is looking northwest. The Vandalia station is just west of 6th street and a large brick control tower was nearby that controlled the district. I don't now what this small tower was for. It's a bit hard to read the sign, but near the three large tanks in the distance it says "F S" which was the F S service station at 6th and Main. |

Vandalia station waiting room |
Description: |
This is inside the waiting room of the Vandalia station that had been shared by the Pennsylvania and Illinois Central. Note the Railway Express sign on the door. Its an original and somebody pasted paper "Pennsylvania" lettering on the tender image. Well, somebody took that sign. Years later the station became a restaurant and in 2007 was destroyed by fire. That somebody brought the sign back to Vandalia and donated it to the Fayette County Museum in Vandalia. So, it was actually saved from the remodeling and/or the fire. |

Pennsylvania freight train at night in Vandalia, IL |
Description: |
This is a westbound Pennsylvania freight train passing the Vandalia, IL station at night. It is a flash photo and perhaps not a very good one. I was 15 years old and new to this. By the way, the Pennsy seemed to run all the trains through here quite fast. |
