Short railroad profits spark potential purchase bid
Atlantic Iowa reports the Chicago Great Western may buy the Atlantic Northern, a 17 mile Danishe town line linking Atlantic with Kimballton and Elk Horn. The line shows a cash balance and a $1,000 profit last year, supported by local annual taxes. The full 55 mile network once extended to Villisca and connects with major lines, but later losses led to wrecked extensions and reorganization. If bought it could yield traffic gains, otherwise owners resist unless regional benefits prove clear.
