Didn't know the public was allowed on the old platform. I saw a sign on Street View that said no trespassing.

[@RockRiverRails]

I have not seen any signs like that. This is a common place to railfan so you shouldn't have any issues.

I have a question. Do BNSF Trains in Galesburg, IL on Live Stream on Virtual Railfan go through Coal City, IL?

[@RockRiverRails]

Coal City BNSF trains are on the Chillicothe subdivision. They don't pass directly on the Galesburg cam unless they get on the Cameron connection.

[@woodenboy9420]

@@RockRiverRails Ok. So the BNSF Trains don't go past here once?
