Exterior view of the Roundhouse Cafe´, located at 250 N. Virgil Avenue. This photo shows the main entrance, with a large "Cafe´" sign above the door, and the front end of a locomotive peeking out from a "stall"; a large engine 'shed' is at the rear of the restaurant. The building is brick with a solid color roof, possibly red, which has a circular "Round House" sign on top. On the left, a 'railroad crossing' signal reads: "Stop. Look. Eat". Another sign below that advertises chicken, steaks, and ham. The operating hours are 5 P.M. to 2 A.M. Photo dated: 1929.
