Photo 18-BPE-6

Comments

Southeast end of Mossville, where State (old 29) splits off from Galena Rd (new 29). The house is gone (replaced by a newer model) but the restaurant off to the LH rear is still a restaurant and the billboard company still uses that corner for the latest in outdoor advertising!

The old Rail Splitter restaurant in the top left, still in business today. I think Abraham Lincoln was a guest there back in the day.
