INDEPENDENCE DAY AT THE ELECTRIC PARK. A century ago, the Electric Park offered ice cream and band concerts. Thanks to the Illinois Railway Museum, the experience is still available.


It was a busy day at the Electric Park, with extra cars at the station. Even at that, some passengers had to sit on trunks in the baggage car.



At the band stand, the West End Dixieland Band provides the music.
