CSS&SB Michigan City, Indiana Station
Before and after views of Chicago-bound South Shore trains at the Michigan City, Indiana station. The views are looking east along 11th Street. The upper photo was taken March 16, 1952, and at the time the South Shore passengers still boarded out of the original station. Today the "station" platform is on the other side of the third car in the lower photo. Lower photo taken 1/23/15. The boy in the crowd in the upper photo, just to the left of the lead car, with the disinterested look on his face, is my dad, only 12 at the time.
