Chouteau Yard Track Map Chouteau Yard. This is from a Laclede Gas Co. map so you will have to excuse the writing across it.
East of Lindenwood This is another map which is East of Lindenwood. These is only a couple of things of interest on it, so I wasn't worried about getting a high resolution out of it to make a good post. If anyone wants a higher resolution of this, or any of these others, just let me know and we can figure out the best way to get it to you. I have all of these recent maps scanned in at a high resolution, and even breaking them up I have to scale it back to get it to fit.
Lindenwood Yard Just wondered if you are any relation to either John Howe or Eugene Howe who worked for Frisco. If so, my dad knew them, he worked in Lindenwood Yard Office with Gene for years. My dad was Eugene Stahl and he died in 1973, so he did not live to see the glorious Frisco name removed from his office and now the office is gone too.
Patrik, you posted the map "East part of Chouteau track" in 2003. This map shows Tower Grove Station too. Do you ha a map the contiues at the left side of this map and shows more of the Frisco-Mopac crossing. I want to add this to my St.Louis layout. Joerg
Hey, I'm new, just browsing. Are you all talking about the area of Lindenwood in St. Charles where a train yard was? Because if it is there that would be amazing, or is it an old yard from exactly St. Louis just called Lindenwood? Old Frisco family tradition 3 generations tracked so far................ New on site.

Hi Carlena, Lindenwood Yard on the Frisco (now BNSF) is still in existence. It is located along I-44 near Shrewsberry. If you're on I-44 coming from downtown St. Louis, you can take the Arsenal St., Exit 284B, and then a right turn at the top of the ramp to go over the yard. Paul
