Forest Park Illinois SOO Line Depot

A picture via a friend of the SOO Line Depot in Forest Park, Illinois.  I believe the B&O's Chicago Terminal Transfer RR owned the structure.  Their tracks ended just north of this picture at Madison Street and the SOO Line began just north of there.  I remember this station from passing it on trips to Hines Lumber across the street.  It was stucco building.  Unusual for a station in Chicago although common for homes in the area.  I grew up in one.
