CB&Q Railroad Depot in Elmwood, Illinois. C.1910
Larry Candilas: Located where two CB&Q branches run together for several miles - MP 25.6 Peoria & Galesburg Sub and also MP 44.4 Buda & Rushville Sub. Depot served both lines

This town was not only on the route between Galesburg and Peoria, it was also on a route between Buda and Rushville.
1902

The north/south route from Buda continues south from Yates City.
1943 Maquon and 1944 Elmwood @ 62,500

Because the above photo shows that the depot was between some tracks, I presume it was the rectangle just east of Rose Street.

The town has an AG Land FS grain elevator.
