| Richard Fiedler posted Santa Fe depot in Groveland IL on the Ancons to Pekin branch. This is a copy of the original print that hangs in Woody's restaurant in Groveland. Groveland is situated between Pekin and Morton IL. Richard Fiedler shared Richard Fiedler shared Joshua Gress: Where was this situated? |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Gabriel's comment [AR1CB0000050064] I would expect it to be closer to "downtown." I had a similar aerial photo, and I concluded that it was the faint rectangle in the southwest quadrant of Roberts Street and the tracks. I found this 1946 aerial, and it increases my confidence that the depot was in that quadrant, https://maps.app.goo.gl/C277nux3yp2hVucy9. You can see the wide platform that is on two sides of the depot. |
This topo map does not have a rectangle along the track as some maps would.
