Thread-topic: [CBQ] Naperville Track Layout-Kroehlers
I happened to be looking for something in BB#42 on the Exposition Flyer last 
night.  I ran across the photos on pages 169-173 of the 1946 wreck in 
Naperville, which include some aerial views of the tracks by Kroehler that 
might be helpful to you.

I don't recall the specific track layout, but I do recall as a kid, I used to 
walk to school in the late 50's and early-mid 60's and crossed 5 tracks 
(including the triple track mainline) at the grade crossing at Loomis Street on 
the east side of the Kroehler facility.  The depot was across the tracks from 
the factory.

Kroehlers track layout would depend on what time period is being studied.

The inbound lumber yard was on the east side of the street and depending
on time period there were spurs into it. Later this became the Naperville
municipal garage.

When the 4th main was pulled up a short piece was left at Naperville for
access to Kroehlers,Beckers coal and grain and one other coal yard. This
connected at the west end of the passenger platform to main #1and stubbed east
of the overhead bridge where a coal yard existed.

There were 2 stubs across the street xing into the plant in the 70s and
boxcars of SE roads were spotted. I seem to recall they were loads of
stuffing material. In days gone bye there was a Kroehler power house too with
loads of coal spotted.

All the stubs into the lumber yard and plant came from the east to west.

Now on the other side of the
mains...............................................
