Bill,

I don't know about scheduled passenger service, but in the fan trip era, the Q did run one or more trips to Galena. The one I rode was on October 6, 1957 with O-5 no. 5631 from Chicago to Savanna and a GP7 to Galena. There was at least one trip with no. 4960 and it may have gone all the way to Galena. I don't have the date, but have seen a photo of no. 4960 at the junction where the Galena branch joined the main line. I think there was a depot at the junction.

The CB&Q served Galena, IL and (during the operation of busses from/to Galena Jct) terminated at the IC station there (at least per the Feb 1926 OFFICIAL GUIDE). Anyone have any info on the CB&Q branch into Galena? Did the CB&Q every offer passenger train service there?

Am looking for photos/maps, etc. especially pix of the busses). Anyone have leads?

Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
