Even as late as the 1990's, when one mentioned the Milwaukee, old heads would correct you and say St. Paul. I had it happen to me a number of times. Ron [Non-text portions of this message have been r

Although this is CB&Q list, I'll add to this subject. The "St. Paul Company" is what it was known as until it went bankrupt in the 1920's. The official name was Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railro

The name "St. Paul Road" never had a corporate imprimatur to my knowledge, although it was an appellation informally and commonly used in the industry.I am unaware that it was ever officially painted

While what you say is somewhat correct, I never heard the GM&O referred to as the "Alton Route". In typical railroad fashion (calling sidings, stations, and other railroads by long-gone references) i
