| Dennis DeBruler commented on Andy's post and Dennis' share below At least the roof is in good shape. https://maps.app.goo.gl/dJeuT1bGBXyUoaAC8 Tom Horvath: Dennis DeBruler Last I saw it was like a bait shop or sportsman's shop. |

| Andy Zukowski posted Galesburg & Great Eastern's Engine House, Water Tank and Coal Tower. Near Victoria, Illinois. 1958 Davis Shroomberg: Apparently the water tower still exists, although now overgrown and surrounded by trees. That's what comments in other groups indicate anyway.

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Davis' comment Judging from this 1957 aerial photo, it may be this brown dot: https://maps.app.goo.gl/urPe1GR9MTMfKuXy7. You can clearly see traces of the siding and mainline on this satellite image. |
I labelled the G&GE railroad as an industrial road because it was built to connect some coal mines to a nearby CB&Q branch at Wataga. Some of those coal mines were the Little John and Midland Electric Mecco.
