Duncan,

I agree with Eric the cars from either Ottawa or Wedron would move,on the Roustabout to Mendota and then to Galesburg. After the bridge was burned on the Earlville to Burgess Jct line in around 57 the cars would have moved on either the Fox River w/f, the night Fox River(former Roustabout or 86 to Eola and then to Galesburg.

From Ottawa or Wedron they could either go back to Eola on the Fox River or 86 or through Burgess Jct. to Earlville and Mendota via the Roustabout.  From Eola or Mendota it's a simple process to get to Galesburg and routed back to Keokuk.  Many industries also received sand bagged in boxcars or tarped over in gondolas.
