FREIGHT OFFICE

1891 Route map for the LS&MS. Click on image to get an easier to read version. The image shows why a south Chicago freight office might be very important for the railroad, since the LS&MS' eastern
freight passed thru south Chicago whether going in or out of the city. I am not quite sure why, but the map prominently shows the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago, and St. Louis Railroad to the south of the LS&MS. The CCC&StL was also known as "The Big Four".
