message: I just reverted an anon's edit that changed the end of the joint passenger train operations back twenty years, and that claimed Milwaukee Road was created in 1955.  The Milwaukee Road did run some joint passenger trains with UP, but the railroad was not created in 1955.  It may be that some of the service was shifted to Milwaukee Road (I'll have to check my references again), but it was my understanding that CNW held onto the majority of passenger services that it started with until Amtrak's creation.

message: Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

message: I'm not happy with the renaming of this article from Chicago and North Western Railway to Chicago and North Western Transportation Company.  It seems to me that it's more appropriate to use the name the company had for most of its existence — the name by which it's most widely known.  What was the reasoning behind this move?

message: The article Chicago and North Western Historical Society was slated to deletion but due to the consensus, it can instead be merged to Chicago and North Western Transportation Company. TheGGoose (talk) 13:20, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Haven't you read the deletion discussion? The society article would be merged to the company article, at least trimming it into a paragraph perhaps. TheGGoose (talk) 13:47, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I did. In fact, I passed on closing it. I'm simply dubious that it's worth a mention and there's enough unreferenced material in the article as-is. I think an external link is sufficient. Mackensen (talk) 14:10, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

message: In the Additional notes section is the comment, "In 1891, the CNW adopted the infamous 'ball and bar' logo..." which slightly confuses me.  I was aware the logo was famous, but not so aware of its infamy; and there is no reference that expounds on that.  Is anyone knowledgeable about that, or is it likely just a mis-use of the term "infamous?" Mike in IL (talk) 12:35, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

message: Iowa Southern Railway page redirects to this CNW page here, but no mention here.  !945 Official Guide shows an electrified line running south from Albia to Centerville, with extension to Appanoose. Casey (talk) 18:13, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

message: The name of the page should be Chicago and North Western Railway. The railroad was renamed back to its original name- Chicago and North Western Railway in 1994.
This is what happened: In May 1994, the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company was renamed back to its original name, Chicago and North Western Railway and the Chicago and North Western Holdings Corporation was renamed to the second Chicago and North Western Transportation Company.
I added this information to the page already with references Granthew (talk) 02:28, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
