Des Moines, IA: Rock Island Short Line Junction, Yard & Roundhouse and Flour Mill

Junction: (Satellite, northwest quadrant of the crossing)
Railyard: (Satellite)
Roundhouse: (Satellite)
Flour Mill: (Satellite)

Rock Island had both the north/south and the east/west routes through this junction. UP got the north/south route and the railyard while IAIS got the east/west route.

Short Line Jct in Des Moines, Iowa! A Southbound grain train for the Gulf!

The 2004 SPV Map labeled this as ADM Milling, but it looks abandoned now.
