Decatur Subdivision

The Decatur Subdivision is a railroad line owned and operated by CSX Transportation in the U.S. states of Indiana and Illinois. The line runs from Montezuma, Indiana, west to Decatur, Illinois,[1] along a former Baltimore and Ohio Railroad line. The east end of the line is near a junction with the CE&D Subdivision; at Chrisman, Illinois, it intersected the Danville Secondary Subdivision.

History
