CMStP&P Freight House #5
« on: February 01, 2010, 10:34:57 AM »
Been looking for pictures in various archives and historical sites of the old freight house at the \"end\" of the Kingsbury line at Kinzie.  All the photos I have are aerial from the MRHA books, and the Sanborn map info indicates 2 stories, but I have not run across any views of the front/back/sides for modeling.  Any help?  Would not want to just make a generic brick bldg if there was some interesting architectural details or style or ornimentation.

Ted Schnepf has copies of virtually every former C&E line structure, including these freight stations, for sale.  

He can be reached at:

Though they are not specifically listed on his website I have been to his place of business and gone through his collection-he has tons of photos of the former Milwaukee Road lines in Chicago and others.
