Eastern Illinois Adventure 7-16/17-11

[railohio]

I spent most of a weekend last month in eastern Illinois around Iroquois and Kankakee counties. I focused on two mainlines, the Union Pacific Villa Grove Subdivision which also hosts CSX on trackage rights and the Canadian National Chicago District, and also caught a Norfolk Southern trackage rights train on the Gilman District out of Gibson City.
