[CBQ] Re: Peoria Interchange Question

["herrick01" <herrick@krausonline.com>]

Thanks for the information, Dick. As a follow-up, what about fruits and 
vegatables? Somewhere I read, perhaps in the PFE book, that PFE traffic was 
handed off to the CB&Q to reach Peoria. Was this traffic perhaps then routed 
over the NKP if not the TP&W for points east?
