Bainbridge Today

Left: Bainbridge, Indiana 2004. Main Street in town, looking east. Typical small town America. Right: The Main Street crossing, looking towards the north.

Left: J&N Feed Company. This business sits on the southeast corner of the Main Street crossing. Right: Looking to the south along the old mainline.

Left: Some foundations I found south of the West Depot Street crossing on the south side of town. Since the closest street is indeed known as Depot Street, it would be a better than average chance this was the location of the former depot. The surface is tile and it is very close to those I saw in Rennselear, Indiana. Right: Conrail derrick stitting on an old siding across from where the foundation are.

Looking south along the former Monon mainline. I was standing on the foundation's southeast corner when I took this image.

CSX action southbound through Bainbridge. The line is still being used occasionally. Not sure who the original photographer is. I believe these were taken by Jim Davis. Please contact me so I can post the correct photographer credit.
