More congrats for Leo. His depth of knowledge (and enthusiasm) is amazing.
Having run on that branch long ago, I nevertheless was surprised at finding out
how much I didn't know. Very glad I was there.

Subject: [CBQ] Fox River Branch Line Presentation
Congratulations to Leo Phillipp for an excellent Saturday afternoon
presentation of the history and operations of Fox River Branch Line from
Streator to Montgomery, and the interchanging interurbans which contributed to
an early era of railroading in the Fox Valley.
For the first time ever, the Little White School was filled to capacity, even
running out of chairs to offer people!
Approximately 60 people were in attendance, including a dozen or so members of
the BRHS! A display of BRHS publications and membership applications were also
viewed by many.
On behalf of the BRHS membership, kudos for a job well done!!!
Tom Whitt, President
