Looking north, the track the photo was taken from is now the main track. The track to the left was the main and is now the siding. The cars in the distance are spotted at the Canning Factory. The track to the right is the elevator track.

Yes, you mean of course, the Indiana State Fair posters. They're just a little weather worn.

Yes. From back when they were works of art. And a much more vital means of communication.

Roger, I love those historical shots. The State Fair poster is great. :tb-biggrin:
