  • The Chicago and North Western (reporting mark CNW) was a Class I railroad in the Midwestern United States. It was also known as the "North Western". The railroad operated more than 5,000 miles (8,000 km) of track at the turn of the 20th century, and over 12,000 miles (19,000 km) of track in seven states before retrenchment in the late 1970s. Until 1972, when the employees purchased the company, it was named the Chicago and North Western Railway (or Chicago and North Western Railway Company). The C&NW became one of the longest railroads in the United States as a result of mergers with other railroads, such as the Chicago Great Western Railway, Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway and others. By 1995, track sales and abandonment had reduced the total mileage to about 5,000. The majority of the abandoned and sold lines were lightly trafficked branches in Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, South Dakota and Wisconsin. Large line sales, such as those that resulted in the Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad, further helped reduce the railroad to a mainline core with several regional feeders and branches. Union Pacific (UP) purchased the company in April 1995 and integrated it with its own operation. (en)

  • Le Chicago and North Western Railway (sigle de l'AAR: CNW) était une compagnie de chemin de fer américain de classe I du Midwest active entre 1859 et 1995. Il était aussi connu sous le nom de North Western et son réseau atteignait les 8 000 km au début du XXe siècle. Grâce aux rachats du Chicago Great Western Railway, du Minneapolis and St Louis Railway et d'autres compagnies, le C&NW finit par avoir dans les années 1970 l'un des réseaux les plus longs des États-Unis avec 19 000 km de voies répartis sur 7 États. En 1972, la compagnie fut vendue à ses employés, et fut renommée Chicago and North Western Transportation Company. À la fin des années 1970, le réseau commença à se réduire. La vente d'une partie des lignes situées principalement dans le Dakota du Sud et le Minnesota, permit la création du en 1986, lequel finit par être racheté par le Canadian Pacific Railway en 2008. Début 1995, l'abandon ou la vente de lignes, constituées en majorité d'embranchement à trafic réduit, principalement dans l'Iowa, l'Illinois, le Minnesota, le Dakota du Sud et le Wisconsin, ramena le réseau à 5 000 km. En avril 1995, le CNW cesse d'exister à la suite de son rachat par l'Union Pacific Railroad. Certaines lignes du Wisconsin sont vendues par l'état au (en). (fr)

  • La Chicago and North Western Transportation Company (marchio CNW) era una ferrovia che operava nel Midwest degli Stati Uniti. Era anche conosciuta come North Western. La ferrovia gestiva oltre 5.000 miglia (8.000 km) di binari a cavallo del XX secolo e oltre 12.000 miglia (19.000 km) di binari in sette stati prima del ridimensionamento verso la fine degli anni 1970. Fino al 1972, quando i dipendenti acquistarono l'azienda, era chiamata Chicago and North Western Railway (o Chicago and North Western Railway Company). La C&NW divenne una delle ferrovie più lunghe negli Stati Uniti a seguito di fusioni con altre ferrovie, come la Chicago Great Western Railway, la Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway e altre. Nel 1995, i tracciati venduti o abbandonati avevano ridotto il chilometraggio totale a circa 5.000. La maggior parte delle linee abbandonate e vendute erano rami leggermente trafficati in Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Dakota del Sud e Wisconsin. Le vendite di grandi linee, come quelle che hanno dato origine alla , hanno ulteriormente contribuito a ridurre la rete ferroviaria verso un nucleo principale con diversi distributori e rami regionali. La Union Pacific Railroad (UP) ha acquistato la società nell'aprile 1995 e l'ha integrata con la propria attività. (it)
