[CBQ] re: Orchard City Club station

[Gerald & Virginia Edgar <vje68@hotmail.com>]

Per pre-1929 TT's & the E-bd sked, Burlngton was MP 828 & just across the 
Mississippi was Orchard City Club @ MP 830.  Next east was Crystal Lake @ 831 & 
Lone Tree @ 834.   A VERY unique footnote was that Orchard City Club was a flag 
stop on SUNDAYS ONLY for the Chi-Burl local #11/22,  Perhaps per the station 
name it was indeed a 'park' used for picnic excursions, ball games, etc?  Being 
just 2 miles from Burlington, it had to be close to the E banks of the 
Mississippi.
