Ken Pryor Jr. posted The Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway (CCC&Stl), also known as the Big Four Railroad in Hutsonville, IL. This line would eventually become the New York Central, Penn Central, Conrail and finally Prairie Central before the tracks were torn up. Not my photo. Got it from a Hutsonville page here on FB. Date and photographer unknown. Bill Irwin The NS at Mt. Carmel Illinois still uses the CCC&Stl yard to store coal cars for serving the local mine. |
These are notes I am writing to help me learn our industrial history. They are my best understanding, but that does not mean they are a correct understanding.
