Need Detailed IC Map of Southern Illinois - circa 1950s
Posted by mobilman44 on Wednesday, December 19, 2007 6:46 PM

Hi,

Anyone know where I can locate a detailed map of the IC lines in Southern Illinois circa 40s-50s?   I've exhausted my knowhow, but suspect what I want is out there somewhere!

 Thanks,

Mobilman44

ENJOY  !

I've got the IC track charts for the Iowa, Illinois and Springfield divisions. What are you looking for?

Hi, thanks for the response!

What I really want is a detail map of the IC lines in Union county (s. Illinois), particularly around Anna & Jonesboro.

Thanks,

Mobilman44

Shoot; I don't have those charts. I did find that I also have the LA, KY and TN division charts, but they won't help either.

Have you joined the various IC Yahoo Groups and asked for charts there? That's where most of us IC fans hang out. One of us has got to have the charts you're looking for!
