OBS

La fusion du CN et de l'IC a uni deux systèmes entièrement contigus. Les réseaux se rejoignent à Chicago et ne présentent aucun chevauchement important, à l'exception du point d'accès stratégique de Chicago. Ce chevauchement est essentiel au regroupement de l'exploitation et permet à la compagnie de transférer les wagons beaucoup plus efficacement.
