On the cover of this catalog, and also right here on page 2, is a print depicting an enormous Chicago Great Western train rolling through southern Minnesota. One of the last Class I railroads to be built, CGW linked Chicago, Minneapolis, Omaha, and Kansas City, and competed against betterknown companies in the same territory, able to stay afloat through innovation, efficiency, and customer service. They were often called “the Corn Belt Route” because of its operating in the Midwest.

One of their defining characteristics was, just like the print depicts, pulling an inordinate number of freight cars at once, seemingly spanning miles.
