Norris, IL: Lost/CB&Q Depot

(Satellite, it was on the west side of the mainline. It probably had a house track behind it.)

Not only is the depot lost, but so is the railroad.

John Stell posted two photos with the comment: "CB&Q depot at Norris Illinois with David Hibbard and his 1964 Chevy.  Sign on North side was the posting that station would be closed.  Slides are marked April 1965.  Both slides by John Stell."

This topo map does not mark the location of the depot, but it does imply that there was a house track.
