Upcoming calendar upgrade: Yahoo! Groups calendars are being upgraded to a much improved version. You may not have access to the calendar (for up to 24 hours) when this group is upgraded. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience.
Description
University Park, IL - Control Car #1224 - Metra Electric Line
Hello,
This list is devoted to any discussion related to the
Illinois Central Railroad or its predecessors, etc. The railroad currently serves as the part of the CN railway. Many group members are supporters of the Illinois Central Railroad Heritage Association. We have been in existence since 1999. New applicants to the membership are moderated in order to prevent spamming. Please be aware of this. Your first post will appear within 24 hours of your posting. Our goal is to provide signficant turnaround, so it will probably be approved sooner. Upon subscription you will receive several handouts. These include lists on ICRR related books and a recent traffic schedule.
We have several sister lists.

Re: Questions about Mounds, IL
... I don't think Mounds was a crew change point. However, keep in mind that Mounds is just a few miles north of North Cairo, IL, which was a crew change
