| David Sebben posted I received this photo recently and it says CRI&P depot in Milan, IL. But the Milan depot doesn't look like this. Could this one have preceded the existing one? Photo from 1909. Thomas Scoville: This is likely an earlier depot. The current Milan depot's architecture matches other Rock Island depots from the 1910-1920 timeframe. The depot in this photo is much older, probably from the mid-1800s. Miles W. Rich: Additionally, the original Milan Depot was built by the Rock Island & Peoria Rwy, which also owned the Rock Island & Mercer County RR which both used the Milan Depot before the CRI&P acquired both of those roads around 1900. I have a book on the RI&P. I will check the photos. Retro Quad Cities posted Everyone thinks that the little depot in Milan is the original one. Guess again! Here is the original Milan depot in this 1909 photo. It served the Rock Island and Mercer County Railroad. Miles W. Rich: It served the Rock Island & Peoria Railway also, which built it. The CRI&P purchased the Rock Island & Peoria which ran from Rock Island to Milan thru Coal Valley, Orion, Cambridge, & Toulon to Peoria. Owned by the same interests, the Cable Family and their mining interests, the Rock Island and Mercer County RR was built from the Milan Depot of the RI&P to Sherrard and Cable. The two railroads were merged and sold to the CRI&P in 1903. The CRI&P then granted trackage rights to the RIS to use the former railroads tracks from Southern Junction to Rock Island. In the 1920s, when the coal ran out in the Cable and Sherrard areas, the CRI&P leased the track from Milan through Taylor Ridge to Southern Junction including the branch to Cable and Sherrard to the RIS. In 1952, when the RIS is shut down, the CRI&P formally abandoned the trackage south of Andalusia Road. The CRI&P abandoned the RI&P in stages. The trackage from Milan to Orion in 1940, after obtaining traffic rights from the CB&Q from Colona to Orion. The trackage from Toulon to Peoria in the early 1960s, and the trackage south of Orion with the shutdown in 1980. The portion of the RI&P from Rock Island to Milan, and the trackage of the RI&MC used by the RIS from The Milan depot to the industrial users along Andalusia Road in Milan & Rock Island is still in use by the IAIS. |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on DaVe's post I wonder when the depot was moved, https://maps.app.goo.gl/v2gqCa4uaRUJa9PC9. 1949/49 Mason City Quad @ 62,500 Thomas Scoville: Dennis DeBruler, it was moved in 1984. |

| Retro Quad Cities posted Firestone Tires and Texaco gas at 3rd and Pershing in Davenport as seen in 1952. The building hasn't changed much since then, now housing Klemme's Klassic Kars. Bill Handel: The Quad-Cities has more surviving antique service stations than most places. Has anyone compiled a directory of them all? Tim Ryherd: Classic art deco. |
