Hello RI fans!
This past week my Grandmother past away in Davenport, IA. Jessica and I went to her funeral on Tuesday. As we cross the I88 bridge in Silvis, ILL, I saw the Rock Island old yard. Today on our way home, I want to stop and take some pictures. However, a secuirity guard stopped us and told us we had to leave. He did say if we went into the maine office and asked permission, we could stay. Needless to say, it was after 5pm. So we didn't get any pictures at the site. We did drive to a small open field and took some. They have ALL kinds of locos in the yard. I couldn't get any close ups. I did get some. Since we don't have a digital camera, you'll have to waite until the film is developed!
