American Railway
In your view, think CN Rail is on a railway line safe?
CN Rail is a private railway which is controlled by a Board of Directors that have reduced the workforce in order to increase profits. CN used to be a Canadian Crown Corporation Company and has since been taken up by E. Hunter Harrison and its Illinois Central Railway. As the name Canadian National must remain in order to meet the legislative requirements, the majority of the board of directors are citizens of the United States. NC, once employed over 125,000 people for the only one who is Canadian operations, and now has slightly more than 24,000 employees for its entire North American Network.
Of course, do not look the fools run

The Virginian Railway $21.37 The Virginian Railway existed as a separate entity for only a half century, but that period of American history witnessed two world wars and the emergence of the United States as a global superpower. Henry Huddleston Rogers, who marshaled the development of the U.S. oil industry through his leadership of Standard Oil, invested $30 million of his personal wealth into the making of the Virginian. He speculated that south-central West Virginia coal would fuel Americas Industrial Revolution. Although Rogers died before his railroading dream could realize its full potential, the Virginian Railway continued on from 1909 until its merger in 1959 with the Norfolk and Western Railway (now Norfolk Southern). During that time, the Virginian grew to a point that it was originating from 1,200 to 1,500 hundred-ton carloads of coal per day and serving 60 active coal mines. It earned a reputation for power, service, and efficiency that placed it among the great railroads of America. |

Leaders Count: The Story of the BNSF Railway $22.05 Mergers have affected railroads in ways few other industries have experienced, and in the last 50 years they have steered the business direction of American railroads. Leaders Count brings readers the dramatic story of how the Aurora Branch Railroad, which spanned from Aurora, Illinois, to Chicago, grew and developed into the modern-day BNSF Railway. The story begins with the many ways railroads shaped and settled the country and tells how the founders commitment to their dreams ensured the railroad’s success. The profiles of tenacious leaders like James J. Hill, known as The Empire Builder, and Matthew Rose, current CEO of BNSF, will inspire readers. This is a case history of the business strategies that have taken this company from its humble beginnings to the industry giant that it is today. More than 75 photos from the company’s extensive archives accompany the story of BNSF’s evolution. As one of the largest and most successful of U.S. railroads, BNSF Railway is a vibrant example of today’s freight railroad industry. While the book provides a brief history of railroads in general, including the five principal companies making up the present day BNSF, its focus is on the critical decisions and strategies implemented by its leaders, choices that ensured the railroad’s survival. Leader Count will be released on the tenth anniversary of the merger that brought the Burlington Northern and the Santa Fe railroads to create the industry titan that it is today. |

Profiting from the Plains: The Great Northern Railway and Corporate Development of the American West $33.14 Profiting from the Plains looks at two inextricably linked historical movements in the United States: the westward expansion of the Great Northern Railway and the agricultural development of the northern plains. Claire Strom explores the persistent, idiosyncratic attempts by the Great Northern to boost agricultural production along its rail routes from St. Paul to Seattle between 1878 and 1917. Lacking a federal land grant, the Great Northern could not make money through land sales like other railways. It had to rely on haulage to make a profit, and the greatest potential for increasing haulage lay in farming. The energetic and charismatic owner of the Great Northern Railway, James J. Hill, spearheaded most of the initiatives undertaken by his corporation to boost agricultural production. As the first scholarly examination of Hill’s agricultural enterprises, Profiting from the Plains makes an important contribution to western and environmental history. |

Class I Railroads in North America: Canadian Pacific Railway, Amtrak, Union Pacific Railroad, Canadian National Railway $24.99 Chapters: Canadian Pacific Railway. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 240. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), formerly also briefly known as CP Rail (reporting mark CP) between 1968 and 1996, is a historic Canadian Class I railway founded in 1881 and now operated by Canadian Pacific Railway Limited which began operations as legal owner in a corporate restructuring in 2001. Its rail network stretches from Vancouver to Montreal, and also serves major cities in the United States such as Minneapolis, Chicago, and New York City. Its headquarters is in Calgary, Alberta. It owns approximately 14,000 route miles of track all across Canada and into the United States, stretching from Montreal to Vancouver, as far north as Edmonton. The company acquired two American lines in 2009: the Dakota, Minnesota and Eastern Railroad and the Iowa, Chicago and Eastern Railroad. The trackage of the ICE was at one time a part of CP subsidiary Soo Line and predecessor line The Milwaukee Road. The combined DME/ICE system spanned North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Iowa, as well as two short stretches into two other states which included a line to Kansas City, Missouri and a line to Chicago, Illinois, and regulatory approval to build a line into the Powder River Basin of Wyoming. The railway was originally built between eastern Canada and British Columbia between 1881 and 1885 (connecting with Ottawa Valley and Georgian Bay area lines built earlier), fulfilling a promise extended to British Columbia when it entered Confederation in 1871. It was Canada’s first transcontinental railway. Now primarily a freight railway, the CPR was for decades the only practical means of long distance passenger transport in most regions of Canada, and was instrumental in the settle…More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=595 |

Origin and Development of the Railway Rail: English and American Wood, Iron and Steel $34.61 INTRODUCTION HIS article is condensed from a much larger work which I began a number of years ago for the purpose of finding the cause of the large number of different rail sections in use, and with the thought that we might learn something of the rail and its service that would be of advantage in the designing of rolls. Since the very beginning of mans existence he must, of necessity, have had some means of transporting both himself and material for his use. This at first consisted of what he was able to do by the aid of his body and physical exertion. No doubt the first effort to improve this condition came way back in the ages, long before the written history of man, when some primitive man in his efforts to make for himself and mate a home, conceived the plan of placing a round section of a small tree under a stone or other obstruction to lighten the burden of its removal. Thus was made the first step toward the production of the wheel and axle, the basis of all successful land transportation. The next step was taken by some prehistoric genius who, in an effort to still further lighten his burdens, with infinite patience and labor, produced a pair of rough wheels by either burning or cutting them from the trunk of a large tree and piercing them with holes for an axle. Thus, step by step, improvements have been made from the roller and primitive cart and rough trails of our cave ancestors to the wonderful railroads and palatial cars of today. We have become so accustomed to their use and presence that few stop to consider their origin and history and the influence they have contributed to the progress and happiness of mankind. Today we are more in need of transportation facilitiesthan at any other time in the history of the world. As is well known, all the products of nature do not exist at the place where they are consumed, but must be transported to and from the place of manufacture before they can be used for mans wants. This makes man dependent upon the means of transportation at his command. This is probably best illustrated by the late Otis Tufton Mason, Curator of the Department of Ethnology, U. S. National Museum, who in one of his reports on primitive travel and transportation describes the first sleeping car by a picture of an Indian woman with a sleeping baby slung upon her back. When we compare this picture with our modern sleeping cars, we have a most vivid and lasting impression of what the rail and railway have accomplished for the welfare of man. This great advance is the aggregate of many years thought, labor, ingenuity, and inventive skill of man. And the rail, which is no doubt the most potent factor in this great advance, has passed through many changes in form and methods of manufacture. From the very beginning of railway development, the railway men have never been able to make any great or permanent advance until the rail had first been improved to a point where it would withstand the additional work imposed upon it by t |
