Folks,

In the 1920's, would there have been much, if any, interchange 
between the Milwaukee and the Q at Savanna? Perhaps the veterans 
could take an educated guess. The follow-up question concerns how 
the interchange was made, i.e. transfer runs between the yards or 
elsewhere. The 1926 Sanborn map shows connections from the 
Milwaukee's elevator trackage, not only to the sidings on the west 
side of the Q mains across from the depot, but directly to the Q 
mainline tracks as well.

As always, your input is greatly appreciated.
