Illinois Terminal #1203, Maroa, Illinois
The upper photo, a first generation dupe of a Truman Hefner Kodachrome taken 2/53, shows interurban car #1203 entering the street running on the north side of Maroa, Illinois. The car is southbound towards Decatur. The Illinois Terminal went down old highway #51 in various spots between Bloomington and Decatur. The upper view was taken from the overpass of the Pennsy's Peoria to Paris branch. Since the Pennsy overpass had been torn down years ago I had to take the "after" photo from ground level. Lower photo taken 4/19/14.
