The Illinois Central followed the Mississippi River to connect the midwest’s industrial and corn belt states to the Southern Ports. It was know as the “Main-Line of the Midwest”. Famous for its Engineer “Casey Jones” and Arlo Guthrie’s folk tune “City of New Orleans”, the IC evokes the golden era of rail travel. It later merged with the Gulf Mobile and Ohio to become Illinois Central Gulf and later part of the Canadian National system.
Text reads: "IC “Panama Limited Illinois Central Diesel Streamliner. The Panama Limited was one of the finest passenger trains in the US. It made the trip from Chicago and St. Louis to New Orleans non-stop through the evening. It was known for its fine dining, particularly the multi-course “King’s Dinner”.
