Latest Trains Magazine Features Navy Pier Line
« on: May 29, 2005, 09:51:41 AM »
Check out the latest issue of Trains magazine which features a story on the former C&NW/UP Navy Pier in downtown Chicago.  It puts the line into historical context as the first mile of Chicago railroad going back to the Chicago & Galena Union days in the mid-1800s.

Some operating photos are shown around Canal Street as well as crossing the Chicago River on the bascule bridge.
