I would expect most of the Ford traffic to move through Decatur to
Moberly
and then to Claycomo (Kansas City) where Ford had/has a large
assembly plant
rather than through St. Louis. It is very likely that the Wabash
owned the
property on which Ford built the Claycomo plant. IIRC this plant
was built
immediately following WWII.

Ford plant at Claycomo opened in 1951.
