The 1888 built Grand Trunk Western Elsdon depot. Chicago Illinois USA. October 1983.

An all time favorite historic Chicago railroad photo subject here at Eddie;s Railfan Page, was the old 1888 built two story Elsdon train station that stood on West 51st Street east of South Lawndale Avenue in Chicago's Elsdon neighborhood.

Here it is in it's last week of service prior to demolition, at the then closing Grand Trunk Western Railroad Elsdon Yard site in October of 1983.
