First National Bank of Gilman

Gilman, Illinois, 209 S Crescent Street, U.S. 24/45. Today it’s the Prospect Bank. View is looking NW. In the upper RH corner, you will see the joint Illinois Central (Gulf) and Toledo, Peoria and Western Freight House. The ICG main cuts across the top edge of the picture, while the TP&W can be seen in the upper RH corner. There’s even a boxcar sitting at the Freight House! The diamonds are hidden behind the building. The Freight House is long gone.
