1-2 Vinton Iowa. Now a city/county museum next to Iowa Northern tracks. 3 Stuart Iowa. Museum/historical society next to Iowa Interstate tracks 4-5-6 Atlantic Iowa. Chamber of Commerce next to Iowa Interstate tracks Thanks for looking Brian Stevens Date: 01/30/15 07:30 Re: Depot Friday: RI in Iowa . . .

Wish they had done more preservation here out West. I remember so many stations that SP and Santa Fe had when I was younger, too bad they were all torn down.

boards to Stop or clear them. It was very rare in RI days to display one board let alone both of them to Calling On. As the signal is not in operation, it would have no effect on IANR operations. zr190 Date: 01/30/15 11:43 Re: Depot Friday: RI in Iowa . . . Author: The_Chief_Way that TO signal in Vinton reminds me of the one at Cumbres, Colorado on the C&TS. Just not right.
