Minooka station was a Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad station in Minooka, Illinois. It was the highest point on the Rock Island Line and was originally called Summit.[3][4][5][6] The town was later renamed by settler Dolly Smith, to Minooka, a word in the Pottowatomi language possibly meaning "high point", "place of contentment", "good Earth" or "place of the maples."[7] Additional translations of the word may be "good land” or “high place.”[8] CSX Transportation runs freight trains on the New Rock Subdivision with Iowa Interstate trackage rights.[1][9]
