4501 - July 2, 1977
Author: MaryMcPherson

A week after making round trips to Mount Vernon, Illlinois, from the St. Louis area, Southern #4501 made a one-way run from East. St. Louis to Huntingburg, Indiana. This took the train through Princeton, Indiana, where #4501 was spotted in the dead line by officials of the Kentucky & Tennessee over thirty years before. These photos were scanned from the original 110 negatives and were taken by George Redmond of Centralia, Illinois.

#1 - The train makes a stop at Fairfield, Illinois.

#2 - Mount Carmel, Illinois.

#3 - The train has reached its destination at Huntingburg, Indiana.

I was amazed at the large abandoned roundhouse in Mt. Carmel. NYC I think.

Don, my NY Central facilities listing shows two roundhouses at Mt. Carmel, a 6 stall and an 11 or 10 stall.
