Excerpt from History of Bringing the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe Railway to Galesburg

The City of Galesburg was more than ten miles away from the nearest point of the line through Illinois, which appeared most favorable under the conditions required. Through extraordinary effort, public spirit and liberality on the part of the citizens of Galesburg, the authorities of the road were induced to locate and build the line through that city.

To no individual citizen can justly be attributed the distinction of securing the road to Galesburg. Never was there an enterprise in which the labors were more generally distributed and borne. Nearly every resident of Galesburg, high and low, rich and poor, male and female, contributed in some way to the result.
