A miniature railroad crossing signal at the Kiddieland Amusement Park. (Gone-Demolished.) Melrose Park Illinois. June 2008.

 
A fun seasonal family attraction in the greater Chicagoland area
that is sadly no longer with us, was the Kiddieland Amusement
Park, located at the northwest corner of North and First Avenues
in northwest suburban Melrose Park Illinois.
 
Kiddieland closed in September of 2009, after a long legal battle
between the family members who owned the amusement park.
 
Seen here during the final years of Kiddieland, is a rusty and well
used miniature railroad crossing signal in the east parking lot,
from the park's popular Miniature Railroad ride.
