The caboose at the City Lake belongs to the city. If the city can,t repair it they should remove it like they wanted done with the one on Main St. because it looked so bad.

The Y mentioned was called The Plametto Y. The Palmetto Y came off the East / Weet Main Line behind the Sanitay Laundry, crossed Main St. and connected to the North / South Main Line behind the Buttercup Plant. Could the picture have been taken from the top of the Sanitary Laundry?
