No mention of this in the 1917 Corporate History of the Burlington by W.W.
Baldwin.

Subject: [BRHSlist] Q branch at Sugar Grove?
Did the Q at one time have a short branch north out of Sugar Grove? I found
a reproduction of a 1916 Illinois highway map being used as end papers in a
book about Chicago area interurbans, and it shows such a line running
between Sugar Grove and the Chicago, Milwaukee & Gary to the north. Gary
fans have never heard of this, and one reply stated that it was a Q spur to
a quarry near Bliss Woods. Any info out there? Thanks!
Thank you kindly,
