Avenue Tower - USGS Topo Map 1960's

            Avenue Tower was located south and west of the IC/C&IM crossing along the track that headed west toward downtown Springfield on Madison Street.  The B&O used this trackage to access its branch to Beardstown, IL.  

By 1993 most of the trackage had been removed, except for the C&IM/IC junction itself.  The tower operator controlled this junction, along with the CTC south to The Brickyard, where the "Connection" to the old GM&O split off the original IC St. Louis mainline and used ex-IT ROW to reach the former GM&O lines to St. Louis and Kansas City at KC Jct. south of Iles.
