somewhere else i said there ...jd aka john domansky<br /><br />somewhere else i said there was a fertilizer plant that started on 10th st across from national electric & west a little, they used the same tracks that NE & the vinegar factory used i think, this is early 1940s up to 50s, there was a big train stopper at 8th st by bakery. briolas was a cool place to visit & get a sliver of ice, just like the ice delivery trucks that went around town & looked at windows for how much ice you wanted, 25 50 75 or 100, they delivered using the big ice tongs that you see in antique shops today. following the truck was fun, there were always a bunch of chips in the summertime., the signs are in antique shops too. so is everything else from those days, i know we sell antiques & have for 40yrs. one good seller is a good real picture postcard, we have 2 big spin racks & 6 boxes of posrcards at the antique mall we are in, if ur ever in michigan city ind, stop by, our name is on booth 20 for 22 yrs now.<br />oh yes mom was good friends w/the briola family. more when i think of what i forgot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386243187863820022.post-18978960746549197642014-10-21T22:38:04.156-04:002014-10-21T22:38:04.156-04:00We played in that area and the houses between the ...We played in that area and the houses between the repair garage and Beaver valley builders supply had no houses and there was a train tressil which supplied Walls and Gutowski's bakery with supplies and feed. That was a deep gully as I remember it, but I was young then and it may have just been because of my age.joseph bartolonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386243187863820022.post-12303299631906240562014-10-21T20:12:33.747-04:002014-10-21T20:12:33.747-04:00I went to St.Veronica grade school and also delive...I went to St.Veronica grade school and also delivered the Daily Citizen, so I took this route on a school day.
