CN/IC still goes through town. ICG abandoned the Chicago & Alton route. A connector from the IC to the C&A is now an industrial lead for an elevator that was along the C&A.
The IC was the east/westish route whereas the C&A ran north/south through town.
Update:

| John Woodrow posted ICG (Peoria district) crossing GM&O (Jack line) Delavan Illinois about 1973 (Wayne Bridges photo) Bill Edrington: Thanks for sharing this. GM&O #1520 is stopped at the westbound home signal on the “Jack Line“. (Actually it was also an ICG unit by this time.) |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on John's post The building in the northwest quadrant with the bay window must have been GM&O's depot. It is consistent with the L-shaped building in this 1939 photo. |
