Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1902-04-26
BURLINGTON ROUTE STATION.

The Rock Island road having pre-
yinusly in some manner secured pos
session of the track originally built
by the Rockford, Rock Island & st.
Louis from Rock Island to Port By
ron Junction, the q found itself with
out an independent line into the city.
For a time the Rock Island tracks
were used to Colona but this arrange
ment was not satisfactory. Accord
ingly steps were taken to get another
track through Rock Island and Mo
line. This led TO the hardest fought
contest ever waged between two rail
way companies in this county. The
Rock Island road contested every
inch of the way. The roundhouse of
the latter road had been set out far
enough in the slough so that it was
believed no road would go round it
and the waterworks pumping plant
at Twenty-fourth street i'm this city
was believed to present an insurmOunt-
able obstacle. In spite of it all the Q,
through series of aggressive and at
times brilliant moves. attained its
goal and in 1879 succeeded in push
ing it's track TO its own depot at the
foot of Sixteenth street. About this

two points after which it tSpk its
name and this county although hay
ing a population of but little over
1000, voted to issue bonds for $780,
600 to help the project along. AS
much more was subscribed privately
bur the road was not built. With
this lesson fresh in mind it is not to
be wondered at that the Chicago,
q Rock Island road. afterward the
C., Il. !. & p, did not meet with as
liberal support as had been hoped
for when it entered the town in 1854.
This latter road. the first to touch
the upper Mississippi, was of the ut
most Importance to the development
of the community. Land values
doubled in Il short time after its adj
vent and the first real boom was .eX-
perienced. The road soon pushed or
west erecting at this point the first
bridge TO span the Mississippi.

The Rock Island.

THE present name, the Chicago.
Rock Island d Pacific. or for short.
and as it is known the world over.
the Rock Island, was assumed in
1866, when a consolidation was eff
fected with the Mississippi Il Mis-
souri, company. This road has been
probably the greatest of all factors
in establishing the ultimate import
ance of the tri-cities. locating. rs IL
did, the first crossing place on the
Mississippi here and aiding in bring
ing this way large portion of the
commerce between the east and the
west. In addition to this the name
of the city and county has been her
aided far and wide through its con-
nection with the big system.
Another thing which has resulted
in some advantage to this community
is the fact that Rock Island has been
the home of the Cables. who up TO the
present year for long period held
the controlling interest i'm the cor
poration. For a dozen years. also.
Rock Island was the freight and pas
senger terminus for the Illinois. East
ern Iowa and Southwest divisions and
the road here Amounted to $4,000 a
month. The freight terminus is still
in the county, having been removed
to Hawthorn, the eastern suburb OF
Moline, last spring. Rock Island
continues 10 be the end of the three
passenger divisions.
The original bridge built across the
Mississippi river from Rock Island to
the Iowa shore was replaced by a
new one completed in 1873 at cost
of 100000. The government and
the road divided the expense with the
understanding that the latter should
he the only line to have the use of
the structure. 1t was originally
built with but one track. In less
than 20 years this was found to be
totally inadequate to handle the bust
ness required of it. So the bridge was
remodeled in the season of 1896 and
room made for two tracks. The Rock
Island is the only road having a
double track through the county and
this was put in years ago The Rock
Island also owns more land in the
city and county than any other road.
Besides its right of way it has two
large yards and the valuable tract in
this city lying east of Twentieth
street and north of Second avenue.

The Milwaukee.

THE Chicago, Milwaukee d st. Paul
road was formerly the Western
Union. Under that name the pres
ent line was built in 1870 through the
upper end of the county to connect
with the stub line from Port Byron
Junction to Port Byron, then under
the control of the Rock Island. This
stub was purchased by the Western
Union and an arrangement made for
the use of the tracks of the Rock
Island from what is now East Moline
to Rock Island. The two roads oc-
cupied the depot recently abandoned
by the Milwaukee on Twentieth
street. and Western Unions business
was looked after by the other roads
employees When the Rock Island
built its Fifth avenue depot the West
ern Union kept the old depot and
soon afterward put in an agent.
About the year 1881 the Western
Union was absorbed as part of the
system by which it had been actually
controlled for some time and from
that time ii was called the Chicago.
Milwaukee & St. Paul. The Rock Is
land tracks were used to this city
from Port Byron Junction till last
April. when the joint arrangement
was made with the @ for the use of
the ID. r. I. & n. w. facilities. The
old depot was used as a freight house

I'm 1854 the Sterling x Rock Island
road was launched and was granted

county. the company never carried
out its plans and soon after the war
its rights were purchased BY the
Rockford. Rock Island & st. Louis

completed the line To Sterling. 1t
also built Il spur now owned by the

The yard in this city is now used to
handle the overflow from Hawthorn
and the local business. Originally
the Rock Island ran its passenger
trains to Twentieth street in this city.
but the through business became
important that practice was abandon
ed and the passenger station was
built on Fifth avenue at 4hirty-sec-
ond street. Last fall the erection of
Il new depot was begun on site pur-
chased just west of the old structure.
The total cost of this will be 5000
when complete. Recently this road
passed nominally under the control
of what is known as the Moore syn

time the use of the Peoria road to
Orion was discontinued. \ few
years later the present bridge across
Rock river was built and the one at
Cleveland abandoned, thus afford
ing a shorter route TO Rock Island
and Moline.
There were no other important
track changes made i'm this county
by the Q till less than a year ago
when the company effected a joint
with the Milwaukee road
for the use of the entire property of
bridge between this city and Dayen-
port. Since then the road has been
running its st. Louis-St. Paul pas
senger trains between the tri-cities
and Clinton over the line on the Iowa
side of the river, using the old line
on this side mainly for the through
freight business. The Q and Mil
waukee are said TO be equal partners
in the deal, which is lease for n long
period.
The roundhouse occupied by the
Burlington was years ago located
above Twentieth street but the Rock
Island road secured possession of the
site and quarters between Fourteenth
and Fifteenth streets were taken.
The old freight and passenger depot
originally constructed by the Rock
ford, Rock Island & St. Louis at the
foot of Sixteenth street continued in
use till year ago. In 1895 land for a
new depot was bought east of Twen-
tieth street and south of Second av-
enue, where the present station stands.
The work of construction was begun
in the fall of 1899 and the building
was occupied in February, 1901.
This marks the finest improvement
ever undertaken in Rock Island by a
railroad company. The total cost
approximated well toward $15O,OOO.
The recent passing of the Q into the
hands of the Hill-Harriman syndicate
does not appear to carry any partic-
ular local significance.
