St. Louis & Troy |
| Description: |
In 1933 the St. Louis & Hannibal RR abandoned its entire southern section; 53 miles from Bowling Green to Gilmore, MO. The small, Lincoln County town of Troy, Missouri, anxious to keep rail service, bought the 4 mile portion to the CB&Q connection ~t Moscow Mills. The new road, the St.Louis & Troy, operated for 27 years before being abandoned in 1960. Final power was this 20 ton Plymouth JLT, bought new in 1946 (5385, 6/47). It's rhown here near the end before reportedly heading on to Dundee Cement in Des Plaines IL. |
