HISTORY AND ROMANCE OF DANVILLE JUNCTION

C&EI RR Historical Society reprint, 2005, 139p, SB.

First published in 1942, with a limited press run of only 250 copies, History and Romance of Danville Junction relates the railroad history of Eastern Illinois/Western Indiana and Vermilion County, Illinois from the coming of the first railroad to the death of Danville Junction in 1919. It was written by two men who lived during that time and put their memories down in writing. This history is not only of the C&EI but the Wabash, the P&E and other railroads in the vicinity of Danville, Illinois. In 2006 the C&EI Historical Society published a reprint of the book.
