David Zachmeyer General I think this is at the TP&W GRade Crossing at Ferris< IL. My dad was an Engineer on this doodlebug. I have a picture of him in the cab in front of the depot in Burlington, Iowa. 2/7/2018 2:56:20 PM
David Zachmeyer General I should have mentioned that I was a conductor on this line when it went from West Quincy to Colusa after the flood of 1965 washed out the northern part of that line. 2/7/2018 3:14:11 PM
Rod Housewright General It definitely looks like the Ferris Grade Crossing. My grandpa told me stories about when he used to ride the doodlebug on the Carthage Branch. 8/19/2018 9:03:49 PM
