    I sure have no idea. Looks like there are still active tracks in place. You've mentioned recent travels. But the GM&O ran in many states. Could be Tennessee, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, or?

    As a depot fan, it makes me sad to know yet another is being lost forever. :sad:

    Good picture. Shows their freight house lettering style very well.

    :D

    Alex-

    Thanks for the PM. I have a few GM&O depot slides. Mostly given to me by a friend. Or bought years ago. Am now wondering if I have this particular one. Will look later.

    :D

    That was a heck of a guess!
    Can we make a game out of it? Maybe the correct poster gets to post the next mystery photo? Depots, landmarks, nearly anything RR-related???
