Photo 60-EAD-3

Comments

The pin on the map is centered on the Mail Pouch barn in the photo above. This is visible on the 2020 Google satellite image. The same image shows rubble where the house and the smaller building once stood. The Oct. 2016 Google street view shows the site and at that time the house and smaller building were still standing; however, the Mail Pouch barn had been replaced with a new barn. This was confirmed using INDOT 2005 Rail System aerial map which shows the house, barn and small building AND the abandonded RR tracks that ran behind the site in the photo. The Mail Pouch barn is ID'd as MPB 14-01-04 on the Mail Pouch Barnstormer's website.
