| This 40’ rib side box car with
one and single doors and no roofwalk is painted brown with an aluminum
roof and white lettering. It wears the C&NW black and white
“Employee Owned” ball and bar herald and runs on black
Barber Roller Bearing trucks. The Chicago and North Western Railway
was chartered on June 7, 1859. After abandoning a plan to merge
with the Milwaukee Road in 1970, Benjamin W. Heineman, who had headed
the CNW and parent Northwest Industries since 1956, arranged the
sale of the railroad to its employees in 1972. The words “Employee
Owned” were part of the company logo in the ensuing period.
In April, 1995, the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company
was merged into the Union Pacific Railroad. |
