| Dennis DeBruler commented on the above post It was along the B&O railroad, and it had an industrial spur from the IC railroad. https://clearinghouse.isgs.illinois.edu/webdocs/ilhap/county/data/marion/flight8/0bgv03056.jpg |
Most of the topo maps in Illinois don't bother marking coal mine tipples, But this one did. (The crossed pick and axe icon.)

David Cantrell posted two images with the comment: "I passed through Odin, IL today and took a photo of the former Union Depot (Illinois Central-B&O) site and created a then and now collage. The second picture shows cut in the rails for the CSX (former B&O) line."
