Brian's comments imply this branch was sold to a shortline railroad and then UP bought it back. The ties look bad, but the rails are not rusty.

The turnout just beyond a small bridge in the background and the access road turning to the right indicates his location was about here.

Rock Valley Oil & Chemical is the only spur I saw cars on when I checked a satellite image. Other companies I found with industrial spurs were Cimco Resources, United Pipe & Steel Corporation, Fastenal, and Kraft Foods. The branch does street running on Madison Street and shares the tracks with the Rockford Trolley.

Today's KD local heads down Madison St and past Mary's place in Rockford. The KD Line used to run between Rockford and Kenosha. This is one of three short stretches remaining, and once a week UP runs up to Loves Park on it.
