List, I am looking for a map showing the yard lay out at E St Louis. I recall entering the yard at Bridge Junction, Ill. and there were 5 or 6 receiving tracks at that point that held 25 or 30 cars. The roundhouse was also in this area. A bit further west was the yard office and another group of tracks we called the outbound yard. At he far end of this yard was a street that the tracks crossed called Front Street and there you left the Q yard and entered the TRRA yard which I think we called Wiggins. This area was only existent in the early part of my career, so the details are foggy. After the removal of the lock and dam at Alton in the 70s if I recall, the E St Louis yard was closed. Thanks for any help, Archie __._,_.___ Posted by: klinerarch@charter.net __,_._,___ |
