A Brief History of the CNW
In 1942 the Chicago & Northwestern Railway published a 20 page booklet entitled ‘A Brief
History of the Chicago and Northwestern Line’. The booklet contains interesting historical
information about the origins and expansions of the railroad and the latest technology
used in the 1940’s. To look at this, go to: https://www.railarchive.net/cnwbook/index.html
