For a brief period in the early 80s, MOP had trackage rights on the L&N/Seaboard System line between E. St, Louis and Mt. Vernon, IL. Here, an eastbound manifest passes the L&N depot in Belleville, IL.

Scott Nauert General Wow - FANTASTIC, historic photo. It's interesting that CSX terminated this line at Okawville in favor of routing all remaining L&N traffic to the B&O in 1990.. Today, the B&O across S. IL is void of measurable online traffic while the L&N (Okawville - east) is thriving. 5/6/2012 11:52:26 PM
