Havana, IL: Lost/Illinois Midland/CP&StL Depot

(Satellite, I think it was between the two branches close to where they met.)

The Illinois Central depot was about a block east and 1 or 2 blocks north of this depot.

The western branch to the south was abandoned by SP&StL. The other routes became part of the Illinois Midland.

I presume it was one of the long rectangles on the west side of their eastern route through here. I looked in the street running part and did not find a rectangle along the tracks that was long enough to be this depot.
