Oelwein typically had many Fs hanging around as well. Take care, Mark Date: 11/10/12 14:31 Re: a lot of C&NW F's, but where? Author: rehunn Marshalltown?

the shop building, which would have showed in the background. Plus, they were on straight tracks. Background of this photo looks much more like the business district of Oelwein. Nick Tharalson, Marion, IA |
