Geocache Description:

A nice walking path down what once was a train track

This rail road track was part of the Chicago and Texas Railroad in the 1800's. In 1902 the land was transferred to the Illinois Central Railroad Company. In 2007 the property was privately purchased and turned into the wonderful walking path it is now.

Of personal note, the father of one of the owners of this path traveled by train on this land on his way to serve his country in the United States army and fought in the the world war II. We salute and thank him for his service to his country.

This cache is places with permission by the owners, please respect this path and the surrounding properties.
