The Illinois Terminal Streamliners were three electric passenger train sets operated by the Illinois Terminal Railroad, which ran between Peoria, Decatur, Springfield, Carlinville, Edwardsville, Granite City, Illinois , and St. Louis, Missouri. These streamlined, electric multiple unit interurban trains were built by St. Louis Car Company in 1947-48. Two of the streamliners were 3-car sets - 300-330-350 and 301-331-351; one was a 2-car set - 302-352. The 350-series cars were deluxe parlor cars with dining services. [[File:
