Sorry, I try not to, but sometimes forget that not everyone knows the RR 
shorthand. GUT was the telegraph symbol for Galesburg. It's just too easy to 
slip back into using them when the lingo starts flying. 75a was the "daily 
except Sunday wayfreight" between Why and Gt(there I did it again) (HY is 
Cicero). The old employee timetables give fairly good descriptions of what 
various trains purposes were. Leo
