James, 
  
This information available from many sources.  One good place to start would be 
this Bulletin published by the BRHS:

buildings of the 20th century) Contains 96 pages - CB&Q depot/division office 
buildings, covering the structures at Aurora, Galesburg, Davenport, North 
LaCrosse, Lincoln, McCook, Alliance, Sheridan, and Casper. Includes 140 photos, 
plus diagrams of each structure. 
  
It's available at burlingtonroute.com

Hi All, 

I'm reaching out the members of the CB&Q list to see if anyone on the list may 
have specific information about and or taken pictures of the Aurora, IL Depot 
as it existed from ~ 1930 through it's closure in 1986. 

I'm looking for the following information: 

Photo's or drawings / diagrams showing the platforms / platform covers (which 
tracks had them, which didn't) at the depot, for all tracks (2 through 10). 

Photo's or drawings / diagrams of the pedestrian subway / access to the 
platforms from the depot? 

Photo's or drawings / diagrams of the signals in use through out the depot 
tracks and how they entered track 3 on the mainline? 

Photo's or drawings of the depot ladder tracks, as well as the control of these 
tracks, manual at the turnout, or from the tower located on the North side of 
the mainline? 

If anyone can help me with any information, I'd greatly appreciate it. I've 
been provided with some distance shots, but was hoping someone may have taken 
shots of the depot tracks at ground level in and around the area well prior and 
up through it's closing. 

Regards 

James
