Historic Landmark Burns


On Labor Day, historic-train-depot-turned-restaurant burned to the ground. It was tragic!

The whole article can can be found on Vandalia's paper. The link above will take you there or you can search for it on their web site.

I have not heard whether or not they will rebuild. I hope they do because the food was great (although we only ate there once for lunch). Yet, even if it is rebuilt, the landmark "historiocity" of it is gone forever. (I think I actually broke the caution tape taking this picture, but thank God I did not get arrested)
