Doug - I recall running across Little Chicago somewhere, but for some reason I didn't record it on my maps - and wasn't aware of the Kellerton connection - South English (on the BCR&N) had a similar story, but they moved the town, lock, stock and name to the railhead when the RR bypassed them. Beaconsfield is also famous for another reason - hint - used to be a mainly Iowa business, but has expanded to the surrounding states as well. Corbin's book "Across Iowa on the K&W and H&S Railroads" does an excellent job documenting these lines. Nick |
