The Chillicothe Depot is
located on Santa Fe Way, (great name!), is the former Amtrak station. (I
was emailed a more comprehensive description of the Chillicothe Depot from
an ex-Chillicothe Resident, and as soon as I get the time, I will post
what they had to say.)
At one time, the Chillicothee Station
was a busy station for passengers goint to and from Peoria, Illinois, but
now it is nothing more than a vaccant building. To the right of the double
mainline, there was once a large yard and a small facility where engine
where held and sometimes repaired. Now, unfortunately it is nothing
more than a small two track siding for freight cars servicing nearby industry's
which you can see in the right hand corner of the picture above. |
