Other GM&O Route: (Satellite)

| Lawrence Thomas posted Looking for photos of the stations on the former Litchfield, Carrollton & Western Ry - it eventually became part of the GM&O. Stations were Eldred, East Hardin, Carrollton, Carlinville and Greenfield, Illinois. Another depot was at Barnett. Carrollton depot view is below. Richard Fiedler shared |
Chicago & Alton ended up with two routes at this town. I found Eldred and Greenfield to determine that Lawrence is talking about the east/west route. The north/south route was owned by KCS in 2005, so it is probably CPKC today.

Possibility 1 at the top of these notes was probably Lawrence's photo because it is along the east/west route. I think whoever built the north/south route had their depot at Possibility 2.
