Description
THIS IS AN UNUSUAL EARLY SPRINGFIELD IL RAILWAY TRANSPORTATION TOKEN TO LINCOLN'S TOMB.PICTURES THE ORIGINAL LINCOLNS MONUMENT (TOMB) AND LARGE 5 SPRINGFIELD CITY RY COMPANY (RAILWAY COMPANY)
THE TOKEN DATES TO 1874-1894 PERIOD.
IN 1894 THE RAILWAY WAS CONSOLIDATED WITH ANOTHER LINE ENDING THE USE OF THESE TOKENS.
THE FARE WAS USED TO TRAVEL FROM DOWNTOWN SPRINGFIELD TO LINCOLN'S TOMB (MONUMENT)
AND THE NEARBY LINCOLN PARK BY HORSE DRAWN RAIL CARS.
THE MONUMENT WAS COMPLETE IN 1874 SO THAT WOULD BE THE EARLIEST DATE FOR THE TOKEN
I THINK THE CATALOG NUMBERS ARE ATWOOD 795D KING 616
