The Decatur Subdivision was a railroad line owned and operated by CSX Transportation in the U.S. states of Indiana and Illinois. The line ran from Montezuma, Indiana, west to Decatur, Illinois,[1] along a former Baltimore and Ohio Railroad line. The east end of the line was near a junction with the CE&D Subdivision; at Chrisman, Illinois, it intersected the Danville Secondary Subdivision.
