| Dennis DeBruler commented on Larry's comment The Kankakee & SouthWest was abandoned so long ago that it is hard to find traces of it on a satellite image. I used this topo map and the town of Flanagan to confirm that it went along the field boundaries at County Road 1950N. 1958/59 Flanagan Quad @ 62,500 |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Larry's comment It looks like it was gone by 1939. Or is it that smudge in the northern point of the wye? In the photo, the depot seems to be on an angle, and it appears that there is a track behind the depot, so that would put it in the northern point. |
