Eric Reinert General Yes, State Line Tower in Hammond, Indiana, Eastbound. Lead unit is going over the B&O, the Erie boxcar has just gone over the Monon. 7/6/2016 4:49:05 PM
Tom Beckett General Those guys are correct. In those days, and even into the early 80's, State Line was a bangin' place with lots of action on several roads. It's a lot different there now!! 7/7/2016 1:39:09 AM
Fred Stuckmann General That's quite a catch there, very cool. 7/8/2016 10:44:37 PM
