Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad
The
Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad
was a
Class I railroad
that linked
Chicago
to southern
Illinois
,
St. Louis
, and
Evansville
. Founded in 1877, it grew aggressively and stayed relatively strong throughout the
Great Depression
and two World Wars before being purchased by the
Missouri Pacific Railroad
(MP, or MoPac) and the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad
(L&N). MoPac merged the C&EI corporate entity in 1976 and was later acquired itself by the
Union Pacific Railroad
.
