Antique Railroad Car In Huntley
An antique railroad business car is being temporarily stored in oup village. The car is owned by James Johnson of Wheaton, Illi¬ nois, and wa.s delivered l^ the Chicago, Northwestern Railroad to the siding near the Huntley depot. At its previous location the car was vandalized, the windows broken out and other damage. Mr. Johnson asks the cooperation of the people of Huntley in not dC' facing this antique any more that it has been marred.
The  car   was   originally   to   be placed on  a siding near  Powder Park.  However, when  it was de¬ livered  to  Huntley,  railroad offi¬ cials   feared   that the   old   tracks ' which had not been used for many years  might   split  from   the   ties due to  the  heavy weight of the car   and   that   it   might   tiien   be impossible to remove it from that         ,„.' location, The railroad is repairing the  Power  Park  siding  and th«r^   ,  y.' car will be moved to that loc*tloiif."^i*~ ";-
