Greetings Leo,

Any clues as to which train?

A local or, more likely, a transcon?

I have photos of an A.T.&S.F. Westbound  Passenger detour stopped at Aurora in the late 60s but the Train went to Galesburg.

The recent thread on the CB&Q detouring during the floods, as well as some other photos I have seen, makes me wonder: Does anyone recall the MILW or C&NW (or any other RR for that matter) having to detour over the CB&Q between Chicago and Mpls/StP? Especially interested in detours during the late 1960's.
