This edition takes us to lovely Beverly Shores, Indiana. This classic station was built in 1929 and was designed by Arthur Gerber. Gerber was an architect who designed several stations and other structures on the Insull properties in and around Chicago.
The station was rehabbed several years ago and contains an art gallery, as well as a waiting room. The distinctive neon sign has been restored as well. I photographed the depot on June 30, 2010 on my return trip from South Bend, where I was on business. More South Shore Depots and a full trip report to follow.
Actually the neon sign is a new replica! IRM has the worn out original in storgae!
