Description
The Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway (M&StL) was an American Class 1 railroad that built and operated lines radiating south and west from Minneapolis, Minnesota.The railway\'s most important route was between Minneapolis and Peoria, Illinois, with a second major route from Minneapolis into eastern South Dakota. Other trackage served various areas in north-central Iowa and south-central Minnesota. The M&StL was founded in 1870 and expanded through line construction and acquisition until the early 20th Century. Most of the railway\'s routes saw only relatively light traffic, and the company\'s financial position was frequently precarious; the railroad operated under bankruptcy protection between 1923 and 1943. The M&StL was acquired by the Chicago & North Western Railway in 1960, and much of its former trackage was later abandoned.
For sale is an employee pass for the year 1928. It was issued to a road department work crew. The pass, which measures appx 4 x 2 1/2 inches, is printed on light-weight cardstock. It is in excellent condition, with no rips or tears, and all writing/markings are from its issuance.
A nice item for the M&StL railfan; shipped in a plastic hard-side collector\'s sleeve.
