John,

You and Malcolm have been asking about the water towers (tanks) in Racine.  I am currently in St Louis at the Gateway Farm Toy Show and a friend of mine from Racine is here.  I asked him about thetowers (tanks) and he is sure they have disappeared from the skyline!!  He thought that a section of the parts depot building was still standing but was not sure.

Since none of our Racine friends are repsonding, I might just have to take a drive to Racine sometime this Spring. 

Ony's best friend moved to Racine several years ago because her husband had been transferred the the J I Case plant after they closed the plant in Terre Haute, IN.  So the plant was still open as late as ten years ago.  With her connection that is my hook to make the trip!!
