I understand there is a book that has pictures of the depots on the old Chicgo, Burlington & Quincy Railroad Line that went from East St. Louis, IL to Beardstown & Rock Island, IL. Would you know where I could find this book or check where it is on the internet? I checked with your library, but couldn't find their e-mail. As I recall this Line went to Monmouth too. I enjoy Railroad History, especially about this Line. In the 1940s I watched the trains on this Line go by my father's father's farm daily.

Would you know the Title of this book or where I might find it, either at a library or where it is on the internet? I looked on your library web site, but couldn't find their e-mail. Our local library can get it, if they know the Title. I enjoy Railroad History, especially about this Line.

If the Warren County Library doesn't have it, you might try to google CB and Q history on the internet. WCPlibrary.org puts you to their web site and they have an online catalogue.
