Illinois Terminal

[MR77100]

How many books are there about the Illinois Terminal? is there one that tells of the final years leading up to the takeover by N&W?

There are many books on the IT but most of them deal with electric days and just touch on the diesel, freight only IT.
About 1981 TRAINS magazine took a look at IT from the end of electric operation to absorption into N & W. Text, map and photos.

There's a new book by Dale A. Jenkins that covers the Illinois Terminal from its beginning up to the N&W merger. Details here:
