What is Eastern Illinois Railroad mean?
The Eastern Illinois Railroad (EIRC) was a Class III, 53-mile shortline railroad that ran from Neoga, Illinois to Metcalf, Illinois, with headquarters in Charleston, Illinois. The railroad hauled grain and lumber. There were 4 locomotives in operation on the EIRC line (EMD GP9 1040, EMD GP 9, EMD GP 10–2, EMD GP 28). The president of EIRC was Everett Fletcher.
In 2019, Watco's Decatur & Eastern Illinois Railroad filed in intent to acquire EIRC. According to the Senior Counsel for ADM (company), a majority shareholder of NRG Inc. (which owned EIRC), EIRC ceased rail switching and terminal operations December 31, 2019, and ceased being a covered employer under the Railroad Retirement and Railroad Unemployment Insurance Acts on March 1, 2020.
