So while I was on Google looking up information on the EJ & E Railroad, I found a bunch of photos that I wanted to share, because it's a part of the history of my husband's family.
Trains and Box Cars ......
An EJ E switch engine moves cars yard Joliet's east side.
6 Brass Keys from Railroads, including the EJ & E in the top middle ....
I saw these, wish they were bigger images ...
My husband, when I told him I was going to share some history and such from the EJ&E Railroad, he said "The J" and I said "what?" ... he says ... "It was just referred to as THE J all around the area,"
Vintage E J & E Railway oil can. The only information is regards to this railway was the ELGIN, JOLIET & EASTERN Railway of Illinois and Indiana.
The caption on this said it was a "Waiters Badge"
A hard item to find from the EJ&E rr. Tool check of some type with the number 72 on it.
