Illinois Central Railroad Links and Information

Here you can find lots of information and links to several excellent websites which are either based on or feature the Illinois Central. The reason why this information was not included on the previous page highlighting the IC was simply to keep things more nice and tidy for you, the visitor.

Anyway, I have visited all of the websites below and can attest to their worth. If you are after information and/or pictures about the IC, you shouldn't be disappointed after visiting these websites!

Illinois Central Historical Society: The official historical society keeping alive the IC's rich history. They have a wealth of preserved information on the railroad and if you are ever interested in joining, as with all historical societies, they can always use more members!

SD45.com: Fine website which features galleries of many fallen flags, including the IC.

IC Photo Archive from RRPictureArchives.net: Another fine website that includes galleries of most fallen flags, including a large collection of Illinois Central photos.

ICG Photo Archive from RRPictureArchives.net: The same site as above but featuring photos of the Illinois Central Gulf prior to the railroad dropping the "Gulf."

IC Photo Archive from George Elwood's Fallen Flags Website: In my humble opinion, the best archival database of fallen flag photos on the Internet.

Also, if you might be interested please visit, and consider joining our American Rails Forums; a family-friendly community where there are plenty of knowledgeable folks to help answer any questions you might have.

Lastly, feel free to search the web or American Rails conveniently from the Google search box below if you're after more information on the Illinois Central. As always, if I can be of assistance in any way please do not hesitate to contact me!
