Re: [CBQ] Carthage Junction

Attached is the track chart with Bayview on it, just a bit north of Quincy.

It is between 68.25 and 68.45 on the track chart.

All-  Whilst you are looking at maps please keep an eye out for BAYVIEW, Illinois.  It was just north of Quincy on the Carthage branch and adjacent to the Upper Bay.  During WW2 landing barges were built at Quincy and apparently there was a side track at Bayview for handling material.

Have never been able to find it on a map, but I have a 1953 photo of the station sign there.  (By railroad rules 'station' is a place indicated by name.  No depot building is required)

Lemme know if you all find anything.  Thanx.    PAW

The chart has the wrong country for Illinois Junction, it should be Henderson. Bureau county is up along I-80.
