Deserted WG Tower at the west end, bay window caboose in view

Description

Vandals and vacant buildings mean trouble anywhere, and so it was with WG tower after the control apparatus was removed. The brick building, once reasonably attractive in a functional way, has become an eyesore, its interior not only wrecked but also gutted by fire. It has become a demolition job for the B&B department. The rear end of PC-1 rattles past the tower and on across County Line Road, the boundary between Elkhart and St. Joseph counties and between the city of Elkhart and the town of Osceola.
