At 9:18 - 9:26, is that Parks Bros Grocery Store? I think it is! Crazy! I was 8 years old when that tornado blew my house away. I was in the 3 ft deep basement with my family and we servived! Nothing but foundation left. Wheatland Plains neighborhood.
I drove a School Bus for Plainfield from 1984-1991. From '85-'90 I drove bus #24 & am glad you have footage of it, along with the other buses that were kept at the then Plaza Dr. location. Thanks for posting!

Magnificent footage. Can you IMAGINE what would have happened if it hit
24 hours later? 1170+ students would have been in the path I am told.

Nice footage. I was 17 at the time. Grew up in Joliet, about a quarter mile from where the tornado finally stopped. 20 years. Still can't believe it.
