About Chicago & North Western Railroad
The Chicago & North Western was a road of contrasts —
serving Chicago commuters, Michigan iron mines and Illinois coal fields. It
amassed a sprawling network of branch lines throughout the Midwest and established
the industry’s first safety campaign by coining the phrase "Safety
First."
The line also was a key link between Chicago and the West. Chicago & North Western was the first railroad to connect with Union Pacific at Council Bluffs in 1867, and in 1984, partnered with UP to open a connector line to the coal fields in Wyoming’s Powder River Basin – enabling the region to become a major U.S. energy source. The Chicago & North Western and Union Pacific merged in 1995.*
