The only common element in Rick Burns' photo and a contemporary Google Maps Streetview is the tavern to the right of the photo. It is now the Harmony Bar & Grill which claims to have the best burgers in Madison. Date: 09/24/18 17:31 Re: EMD Covered Wagons -- Rick Burn Author: 41 Love it! The Tower 55 shot in Ft Worth is all different now, with the highway interchange now above ground.
