Michael Matalis: Hard to believe, but the Q's Mallets were used on this line when it was in service.

Railroad Depot with a Train sitting on the tracks with people watching. Browning, Illinois 1913.

Dennis DeBruler commented on Roger's post
The yellow stripe across the top is from the 1921 Vermont Quadrangle. It doesn't have the new route. The reddish part is from the 1926 Beardstown Quadrangle. It does have the new route. So the new route was built between 1921 and 1926. (Both topo maps have a scale of 1:62,500.)
