The Great Northern Railway (reporting mark GN) was an American Class I railroad. Running from Saint Paul, Minnesota, to Seattle, Washington, it was the creation of 19th-century railroad entrepreneur James J. Hill and was developed from the Saint Paul & Pacific Railroad. The Great Northern's route was the northernmost transcontinental railroad route in the U.S. In 1970, the Great Northern Railway merged with three other railroads to form the Burlington Northern Railroad, which merged in 1996 with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway to form the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway.

  • Great Northern Railway var ett amerikanskt järnvägsbolag som ursprungligen trafikerade sträckan Seattle, Washington - St. Paul, Minnesota, en sträcka på cirka 2 700 km. Järnvägsnätet växte, bland annat med en linje till Chicago, och omfattade så småningom över 12 000 km. 1970 gick Great Northern samman med ett par andra bolag och bildade Burlington Northern Railroad som sedermera blev en del av BNSF. Great Northern lever vidare i BNSF då BNSF:s lok är målade i ett färgschema inspirerat av det från Great Northern. (sv)
