Somebody asked about the Utica battery substation recently, so on a brief vacation in the Illinois Valley I got a couple of up-to-date pictures of it. Not much has changed.
And another object of interest in the area is this old car body in the yard at Lasalle-Peru.
Experts say it cannot be restored. :)
And speaking of volunteers, if you think restoring railroad cars is hard, I suspect keeping an old wooden boat afloat with volunteer labor must really be tough.
But otherwise, we had a good time!
