1: There is an oddly circular pile of plants, which are noticeably different from the surrounding ground cover, in exactly the place I expected the turntable to be. I wonder if these things are related. Looking north, towards the roundhouse.

2: This is where the roundhouse was, north of the turntable. Looking north, at what would have been the edge of the turntable and into the roundhouse.

3: Roundhouse location, looking at what would have been the east wall. The ground is surprisingly clear, considering that the roundhouse was torn down in the early 50s.

4: The location of the diamond with the ex-Pere Marquette line. Looking south towards Monon.

7: The location of PM Tower. Looking east.
