This is my first post. I used to work for the EJ&E, back in the 60s when I got out of High School. I was wondering if there were any detailed photos out there on the web of the Jolied Yard Rip Track. They had a round house too, but I never got over to it.

Terry,
Let's clean up that typo first. Assume you are talking about the Joliet yard.
Your best source for the info you are seeking may be found at the following link:
http://www.ejearchive.com/page_maps.html
Also, if you use one of the live search functions on the web, you can get some great aerial photos of the current track and yard structure at and around Joliet.
