Allentown, IL: Illinois Terminal Yard Office and Wood Grain Elevator

If you are here because of "Battle Creek, MI: CN/GTW Railyards, Backshop and Roundhouse," then you need to go there.

The gravel road in the foreground was the Pennsy RoW, and the powerline in the background is on the IT Row.

David Elliott posted four photos with the comment: "This in Allentown IL just west of Mackinaw IL.  From what I've been told and read the Illinois Terminal built a small yard to avoid some of the switching fees in Peoria.  This is building in the field is what was the yard office.  Unfortunately it is on private property so these are from a distance.  The others are the Allentown elevator which has been unused for years but is a cool building."

Jeff Geisler: The PRR also ran through here. The grain elevator is on the PRR.
