Dave,

Very interesting photo. Did you know the sign on this station hangs in the Sonny Acres store on North Ave. Do you know what year this was taken? I think around 1909. Hope to hear from you.

Chicago Great Western Station

Hi Jerry,It has been quite a while since I visited this old photos website,sorry that my reply has been somewhat untimely.I was not sure of the exact year of this photo although I study the CGW RR & live about a block away from the old abandoned right of way near Elmhurst.It is a shame that the Great Western shut down so many years ago,it was a very interesting railroad. I had seen as a child near my home in the late 1960's.I have never been to Sonny Acres but I do know where it is at,someday I will go there & check out this portrait.Thanks for letting me know.Dave
