This was the Illinois Central centennial marker by the station at Hammond, Louisiana. The railroad placed a pair of these medallions at stations throughout its system to commemorate its 100th anniversary in 1951. Some of the bronze medals, such as this pair, were mounted on stones markers; while other pairs were placed directly on buildings. They are sometimes available for sale on-line. |
