  • Hidden RR Features in Shorpy Photo

    Besides the wonderful open air street car and the gents in boater straw hats, there are a couple of railroads represented here. They must have had passenger/freight offices on Washington Street. Can you locate them?

    Russ,

    So far I've picked up the Rock Island office and the third floor Lehigh Valley sign.

      Wow, what a great picture! It is so crisp and sharp, I just spent the last 10 minutes just staring at all the details. Check out all the signage!

      As for the railroad references, I found the Rock Island office as well as the Lehigh Valley sign in the window, but also found a Northern Pacific logo in the window over the entrance to the Rock Island office!

        Yup, all three. Missed the LV one at first.

          Hey Russ, that was great. It got me to looking around and I found this very similar one!
