Lincoln Neb Journal notes North Western Chicago Fremont line gains
Chicago and North Western chief James R. Wolfe celebrates the Chicago to Fremont connection as crucial for the Union Pacific and the West Coast route. Interchange at Fremont has grown from 170000 carloads in 1972 to 301000 last year, with further expansion planned including a Powder River Basin coal spur through a joint venture with Burlington Northern. The five year employee ownership seeded reinvestment, helping rail traffic rebound after 1975 losses, as farmers store grain amid low prices.
