Keokuk Junction-BNSF
Canton, IL



The junction between the Keokuk Junction and the BNSF Railway is located one block west of Illinois 9/78. These two railroads connected at one time. Now the BNSF line does not go north of central Canton. The Keokuk Junction is the only line at this junction that is still functional.
