Pls elaborate.  I have all of the negs of the great James G. LaVake, who 
was an EAL pilot and a big time rail buff and photog (the Richard 
Steinheimer or Donald Duke of the east) and who shot the L & N station 
in N. O. and, I think the S. P. as well as the NOUPT in various stages 
of construction.  Where, exactly, was the IC station?  I did not realize 
it was still extant, or did I misunderstand your post?  Again, pls fill 
us in.
