    Thanks, Roger. In 1910, those were giants.

    The first photo was probably about the same time as the second and the photo taken from the freight house in the second . The passenger train was taken off in April- 1950 and I started in August - 1950 . Every building in both photos were gone by 1950 . The siding in the first photo was gone and the freight house in the second including the water spout . The two main tracks were the PRR high iron from the windy city to Ft. Wayne points east .
    The loco in the first photo was a 4-4-0 . The second photo is 4-4-0 ,7092 , Blt. 4/89 Sc 12/11 . Original # 22 , 92 - 622, 05 - 7092 .There were 16 of these locos at Anderson . The last of this power ,7096 was Sc 9/17 . These locos are covered in NYCHS NYC LINES pg. 502, 520 , 521 . LEW
