Author Pat Dorin shines a spotlight on the varied freight operations and equipment of the Chicago and North Western Railway, highlighting the postwar era right up to the C & NW's 1995 merger into the mighty Union Pacific Railroad. Often thought of as just a "granger" line, the North Western was also a major carrier of coal, iron ore, and fast intermodal traffic. These operations, and more, are detailed in this fully illustrated volume.
