Richard C. Overton’s “ A History of the Burlington Lines” does mention CB&Q entering into an interline agreement with the GM&N and NC&StL via the Paducah Gateway in spring 1926. The apparent catalyst was perishable freight. The GM&N acquired trackage rights over the NC&StL between Jackson, TN and Paducah in summer 1926 and extended its line from Union to Jackson, MS in July 1927, thus creating a through route to New Orleans via the New Orleans Great Northern (GM&N gained control of the NOGN in 1929).

No carload stats, unfortunately.

Hello, list. As I understand it, the CB&Q in the mid 1920s entered into a traffic agreement with the Gulf, Mississippi, and Northern to handle Chicago traffic to/from the Gulf Coast via Paducah, KY. Is there any information on the terms of this agreement, and how long it lasted? Also, I'm curious as to how much tonnage actually was routed this way.

I appreciate any help.

Regards,
