Viewing Album:  Rock Island Depot in Rock Island
 
By:Matthew Zisi
Dates:8/21/2021 - 8/21/2021
Album Info:After photographing the Frisco Depot in Frisco a few years ago, I finally photographed the Rock Island Depot in Rock Island! Now I need to get to Santa Fe for the you-know-what. You'll also be seeing several photos of IAIS 511 & 701, which I could say I followed to Iowa City, but it followed me in all actuality. Enjoy!
