Raise a glass to the North Western and its long run across the Midwest. This Chicago and North Western Railway pint glass brings CNW railroad history to a favorite refreshment, from the road’s 1859 charter through its Employee Owned era and 1995 Union Pacific acquisition. A natural choice for collectors, former rail families, and fans of the classic ball-and-bar identity, it adds a meaningful railroad touch to home bars, railfan gatherings, and everyday unwinding.
Chicago and North Western Railway, commonly called the North Western and using reporting mark CNW, was chartered on June 7, 1859, after purchasing assets of the bankrupt Chicago, St. Paul and Fond du Lac Railroad. Its system traced its origin to the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad, chartered in 1836 and operating from December 1848; the two merged on February 15, 1865. The railroad expanded through acquisitions including the Sioux City and Pacific, Fremont, Elkhorn and Missouri Valley, Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western, Minneapolis and St. Louis, and Chicago Great Western. It leased the Omaha Road in 1957 and merged it in 1972. Employee ownership that year brought the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company name and the Employee Owned logo. After later restructurings, the original Chicago and North Western Railway name returned in 1994. Union Pacific purchased the company in April 1995 and integrated the CNW system into Union Pacific Railroad.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
