E7 #101 leads passenger train #1, “The Alton Limited” past the Bloomington yards and will be arriving at the station in about a half mile. The Subway Club in the background was comprised of two separate structures. The hotel and restaurant portion is seen here, and on the west side of the yard was the Subway Club’s diner. To access one from the other, one would walk through the “subway” that went underneath the south end of the GM&O yard. It is rumored that Al Capone used the Subway Club as one of his many hideouts during his reign. James Lennon photo. Barry Lennon collection.
