Amoco has a pipeline terminal at Rochelle from the refineries. I haven't  
been to Rochelle since the spring meet there a few years back but I do see the  
C&I wayfrieght with the fuel cars so I suspect your diesel loads at  Galesburg 
are originating in Rochelle.
Both the Q/BN and Milw used to load cars there for system use. In  the old 
days the retail dealers were supplied from this terminal. L Peshia  used to 
talk 
about how long it took to get a car from Rochelle to places like  Walnut and 
Tampico. Just think of all the switching and handling that was  involved in 
this short hop.
