To answer Noel's questions:
   
  The Rock Island entered the foundry from the east side. When I worked the job 
there was but one track off the Rock main into east side, which went between 
two of the foundry's buildings. The Q switched the west side of the foundry. I 
do not remember what the Rock delivered there. Occasionaly we would have a 
foundry car that we had to hand to the Q as it was to be spotted on their side 
and vise versa.
   
  When we delived coal to the Q (I hate to write BN) we would pull thru town 
toward Bishop Hill over until over US34. When train crew had route lined we 
would shove around track that is shown on maps as running past north side of 
turntable (which was long gone). This lead to a track that went on north side 
of Q depot (house track maybe) and curved slightly toward main line, then 
shoved past a crossover and over a crossing where we left cars. Sometime during 
the next 24 hrs a westward Q train would pick them up and forward to Burlington.
   
  Our conductors name was Bill Starr, any relation to Fred Starr of this group?
