Ada's latest news

It's 1903 and here's Ada's Pennsylvania Railroad passenger depot, on the double-track Chicago to New York line. What's changed since then? Now there is only one track. There's only freight trains, but the depot continues its over-one-century presence in Ada. John Marshall provided this photo to the Icon.
