What period did this train run? I never heard of it before either.

The Mississippi Riverview was the 'day' train between Chi & the Twin Cities
with the Black Hawk being the overnight train for decades. Your brochure has a
date (I have a couple versions of this brochures) - look inside bottom left of
back cover OR the small date in bottom corner of the map. The "Mississippi
Riverview" was named such by CB&Q after absorbing CB&N, A good name as it's
daytime sked meant you indeed got a good view of the Mississippi River!

Subject: [CBQ] Twin Cities Trains
I was sorting through some stuff and found a brochure for Burlington winter
vacations. It listed 4 Twin Cities to Chicago trains the Blackhawk, Empire
Builder, North Coast Limited, and the Mississippi Review. I could not find a
day on this thing either. I never heard of the "Mississippi Review" it left the
Cities in the evening around 8:00pm and arrived in Chicago around 7:00am. Any
information would be helpful and interesting.
Thanks Mitch
