Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City Railway Sticky Post-it Note Pad
Product Details & Size Guide
Add a railway history touch to everyday lists and reminders with a sticky note pad inspired by the Chicago Great Western. The railroad grew from regional roots into a multi-state carrier, connecting Chicago, the Twin Cities, Omaha, and Kansas City under its Corn Belt Route identity. Its shops helped make Oelwein, Iowa, a notable railway center. A practical desk accessory for railfans, collectors, students, and anyone who enjoys keeping a piece of Midwestern transportation history close at hand.
Founded by Alpheus Beede Stickney in 1885 as the Minnesota and Northwestern Railroad, the line began as a regional route between St. Paul and the Iowa state line. Its predecessor history included a 1835 charter for a proposed railroad west from Chicago; construction never began under that charter, and the building rights passed to the Minnesota and Northwestern in 1854. Construction south from St. Paul toward Dubuque began in 1884. The Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City Railroad acquired the Minnesota and Northwestern in 1887 and developed routes to Omaha, St. Joseph, and Chicago. Reorganized as the Chicago Great Western in 1892, it grew into a multi-state carrier linking Chicago, Minneapolis, Omaha, and Kansas City. Oelwein, Iowa, became its headquarters and principal shop site, with construction completed there in 1899. Known as the Corn Belt Route, the company adopted diesel power across its system by 1950 and ended passenger operations on September 30, 1965. After years of merger discussions, it joined the Chicago and North Western Railway on July 1, 1968. The successor abandoned most former Chicago Great Western trackage.
Keep a stack by the phone for action items, stash a pad in your planner for weekly priorities, or place one on a conference table where everyone can jot a quick note. The adhesive holds through handling but releases cleanly when you move items around. For people who prefer minimal branding and maximum writing space, these pads help keep thoughts visible and tasks moving forward without shouting for attention.
