Stockland, IL: Junction: Aban/C&EI Branch vs. KB&S/Milwaukee/CTH&SE

KB&S = Kankakee, Beaverville & Southern Railroad
CTH&SE = Chicago, Terre Haute & Southeastern Railway

My 1928 RR Atlas shows the CE&I branch ran straight west from Freeland Park to Milford Junction. The only trace of it today is some rather arbitrary boundaries between farm fields.

Satellite plus Paint
The CTH&SE still exists as the KB&S

Eric Berg posted six photos with the comment:

STOCKLAND, ILLINOIS--After Webster tower came Stockland Tower at MP 92, where the Milwaukee Road crossed the C&EI's Freeland Park Branch. Here are some older photos, each labeled. 3 Photos from 1936 are taken by John W. Barriger.

 The town's grain elevator was built along the C&EI branch. It appears they have built a train loading facility along the KB&S and truck grain toit from their main facility.

Google Map does not label the grain elevator, but it is obviously active because a truck is parked at the scale house.

The branch still appeared on a 1940 system map:

But it is not on a 1955 System Map.
