Fwd: [CBQ] Gas Electric in Rochelle, IL

[qutlx1@aol.com]

Good question Rich,

 

If the location is identified correctly. From the photo the site appears to be looking west and the car is on the west end of the Kennedy track.

#41/42 was the daily motor car between Rockford and Aurora but by 1950 it is not in the C&I ETT. It is in the 1947.

 

The Rockford wayfreight ran from Rockford to Rochelle each night and return. Could this be the Rockford wayfreight powerrunning late and  tied up for beans before going back to Rockford ?

If this dealer has the location correct, there was a Gas-Electric in Rochelle, IL. in January 1951.  Why would that be?
