I'm interested in learning more about the Illinois RailNet operations north of Flagg Center. What power does this line usually operate with? Where do the crews go on duty and at what time? What is the history of this line? Are there any webpages that cover this operation? Thanks for the help!
I keep thinking that this was once a fairly busy section of CB&Q? Weren't there some Milwaukee Road trackage rights at one time in the same area? Boxcab E50
I'll have to dig through some old issues of The Milwaukee Railroader, but I believe the CMStP&P had trackage rights north to Rockford. That sound about right?
Yes. It sounds correct. Darn! Wasn't it just in the last year or so, that there was a TMR article on Rockford? With some McCoy aerial views? Too much on my mind today. Can't think. Boxcab E50
