The CB&Q did a lot of interchange traffic with the Wabash at Chapin, Il. The Wabash main line was Kansas City to Buffalo. Here is their route map. http://wabashrhs.org/images/wabsysmap.jpg Bob Weber

The old saying was, "Don't short haul yourself" i.e. keep the load on your own railroad as far as possible. Of course, the shipper had an absolute right to specify the route and sophisticated shipper
