Happy Holidays and welcome to my Illinois Division of the St. Louis Southwestern.  The layout is based in the late 60’s to early 70’s and runs from the fictional town of Marysville, IL (Paris, IL) southwest to E. St. Louis. 

This is a photo of Bud Yard which is the main yard that is located in Marysville.  This yard servers all the local industries and is an interchange point with the PC.

These photos show Elbridge CO-OP located in Elbridge, IL.  This shipper is the 2nd largest shipper on the line that generates both inbound and outbound traffic.bridge01.jpg bridge02.jpg bridge03.jpg bridge04.jpg 

Thank you and have a wonderful holiday.

Looking great

Always nice to see a unusual part of a neat prototype modeled. E.St.Louisoffers so many opportunities for traffic in any generation. Keep us posted on your progress Thomas G.
