CB&Q  junction in 1910
Robert Chitwood: I wonder if the junction station was SW of town where the two lines joined

Dennis DeBruler commented on Robert's comment
It appears so. I'm guessing it was the white rectangle in the fork in this 1947 aerial photo.

All three routes were CB&Q.
1950/50 Palmyra Quad @ 24,000

CB&Q had some spaghetti in that area.
1902

The route to the south is now abandoned. Trains now have to use the junction at West Quincy to get on the route that goes south to St. Louis.
