Window Waycar

Uploaded: February 10, 2010

Description


2009 Lisle Depot Days

Lisle - Illinois - USA

This shot was taken from the Lisle Station Museum. The recently restored 1881 Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Waycar (caboose) may be viewed through the window. The caboose was not added to the shot, that is the way it appeared.

For the PG101 Framing Theme.

Comments welcome and appreciated!
