      <description><![CDATA[This article relates the author's experience of discovering the first right of way for the North Western rail line, considered to be the the origins of locomotive-powered railroading in Chicago. The author gives a scattered historical overview of  the North Western, tracing its roots to the Galena & Chicago Union, and how as the C &NW, it controlled the oldest right-of-way in Chicago. The author discusses the role that Chicago played in railroading, and how it was considered to be the most important railroad hub in the U.S.]]></description>

      <title>CLINTON, IOWA: RAILROAD TOWN</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/697815</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Clinton, Iowa, was one of the first railroad crossings over the Mississippi River and has been a major gateway to the Great Plains and beyond since 1859.  The Chicago and North Western (C&NW) Railroad built tracks to Clinton in 1865.  The vast Clinton Rail Yards became a principal C&NW division point.  For over 100 years, the railroads employed thousands and supported the quality of life in Clinton.  Railroad activity peaked both nationally and in Clinton during World War II and the late 1940s. This peak coincided with the post-war rising popularity of private automobiles, the rise of the trucking and airline industries and the expansion of federally funded highways, all of which contributed to the slow decline of the railroads.  In the late 1990s, the railroad was seeking to demolish vacant buildings and redevelop some of their property adjacent to the city's major thoroughfare, U.S. Highway 30.  At the same time, City of Clinton, the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) were making plans to improve Highway 30.  As part of their work on the Highway 30 corridor, the city, the Iowa DOT, the FHWA and the State Historical Society of Iowa agreed to study Clinton's railroad history.  This report documents this history.]]></description>
