Indiana

South Shore

Indiana is home for the South Shore. Here its roots of being an Interurban still exist. Single-track with passing sidings, street running, and freight traffic. I have only rode the South Shore as far as Michigan City, someday I need to go all the way to South Bend!

Boarded up 11th St Michigan City Depot. Trains still stop here, but the waiting area is merely a bus shelter. (4/26/05)	A view of the 11th St station, note the sign to allow passengers to board the trains from the street. (4/26/05)
This is a true Interurban setting, tracks in the middle of the street with wires overhead. (4/26/05)	If you look in the distance, a Chicago bound train is coming. (4/26/05)
Chicago train about to stop to board passengers at 11th St. (4/26/05)	The quaint Beverly Shore depot as seen from the train, most trains treat this as a mere whistle stop. (4/26/05)
View from the train of the street entrance to South Chicago Station. (4/26/05)	Okay, this station is actually in Illinois, Hegewich. (4/26/05)
