Kansas City, MO: Wabash and Rock Island Rail Yards and Grain Elevator

Railyard: (Satellite, Wabash was north of the elevator and RI was south of it. Now it is the NS Avondale Yard.)
Turntable: (Satellite)

Much of the Wabash yard land is now a stone yard. According to some maps, CB&Q shared the Wabash line to the east.

Jon Roberts posted two photos with the comment: "Kansas City I29 just North of Missouri River."
Dennis DeBruler: It looks like it is no longer used: https://maps.app.goo.gl/msF1F7m6WxvdZ32D6. Wabash was the yard north of the elevator and Rock Island was south of it. Now this is the Norfolk Southern Avondale Yard.
Jon Roberts: Dennis DeBruler best I can gather was last used by ADM in early 2000s
