Hi Bill (and List),

Thanks for the great summary of division names- that was what I was hoping for!

I have put in a several questions below, RE territory covered.

Fred R.


Chicago and Aurora:   Chicago to Savanna?    (Aurora to Galesburg as well??)

Galesburg and Beardstown:     Galesburg to Ottumwa?   (West on Kansas City line as well?)

Hannibal:    West Quincy to St. Louis?

La Crosse:    Savanna to St. Paul?

Ottumwa and Creston:    Ottumwa to Creston?
