Elmwood, IL: Lost/CB&Q Depot

CB&Q Train Station, Elmwood, Illinois. 1910
Ryan Shari Menold: Is Elmwood where the Buda spur started?
Ed Leeson: Ryan Shari Menold Yep, on the east side of town.

This town was not only on the route between Galesburg and Peoria, it was also on a route between Buda and Rushville.
1902

The north/south route from Buda continues south from Yates City.
1943 Maquon and 1944 Elmwood @ 62,500

Because the above photo shows that the depot was between some tracks, I presume it was the rectangle just east of Rose Street.

The town has an AG Land FS grain elevator.
