As Aricat says above, the Rock Island handled the trains beywond Burlington.  I Have a passenger timetable - May/Oct. 1962 - that shows the Zephyr-Rocket still in sevice, but local service is only from St.Louis up to W.Quincy station. Freight service only thru E. Alton, IL, but the station list goes from St. Louis to Rock Island. The line from Old Monroe to Mexico is freight only (now ripped up I believe); strangely the trackage rights from Mexico to K.C. via the Alton are still shown. Art
