| Andy Zukowski posted Railroad Depot in Shaws Illinois. Postcard Dated 1909 Larry Candilas: MP 21.9 Shabbona & Sterling Sub John Mathesius: Been thru Shaws many times. Curious where this was ? |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Larry's comment I think this is the first town that Andy has found that is so small that it doesn't appear on this 1902 CB&Q map, https://collections.carli.illinois.edu/.../knx_rail/id/298. It is between Amboy and Brooklyn on this map. Larry Candilas: Probably because it wasn't there yet |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on John's comment Because the photo shows the building is along the straight mainline and there is a house track on the other side, I think it is the rectangular smudge in the red outline on this 1939 aerial. https://maps.app.goo.gl/2A8yDTdxtCWsxL5P6 |
