Reason for the detour was due to the Mississippi Riv= er flooding at Savanna in the late Spring, of 1965.   Suspect thi= s is a combined eastbound NCL (#26), EB (#32) and the Morning TCZ (#22) tha= t got on the CGW at Galena Junction, IL (East Cabin, IL was IC) and most li= kely proceeded east on the CGW to Holcomb, IL where they went through the i= nterchange track, onto home road trackage of the11th Subdivision (Rockford = branch).  Nine miles south (TT "east") they could return to the 3rd Su= bdivision (C&I) at Flag Center and "resume" their regular stops at Roch= elle, Aurora and Chicago.  Only two regular stops would have been "mis= sed" with this detour; Savanna, IL and Oregon, IL.  Recall 4960 being = used in April, 1965 to move trains through "submerged" trackage at Savanna = (see Flickr file, for photo).
 
Other flood detours went Flag Center - Rockford and = then IC thru Galena, Portage and East Cabin back to the Q.
 
I spent the summer of 1965 as a vacation "relief" op= erator at the "temporary" control point of East Winona, WI where the Alco r= ich Green Bay & Western crossed.
 
Any photos of the Burlington detours passing thru th= e CGW's Winston Tunnel, not far from Galena Junction?
