Carry a piece of northern rail history wherever the route leads. This Northern Pacific Railway luggage tag honors the line chartered in 1864 to connect Great Lakes country with Puget Sound, completed across Montana in 1883, and remembered through the North Coast Limited. A fitting travel companion for railfans, Pacific Northwest wanderers, and collectors who appreciate the NP reporting mark and its Burlington Northern and BNSF lineage.
Northern Pacific Railway, reporting mark NP, was chartered by the U.S. Congress on July 2, 1864, to link the Great Lakes with Puget Sound. Groundbreaking began at Carlton, Minnesota, on February 15, 1870. Construction moved west through Minnesota and Dakota Territory while another section advanced from Kalama, Washington Territory. The line reached Fargo in 1872 and the upper Missouri River at Edwinton, later Bismarck, in 1873. After financial crises and reorganizations, the transcontinental main line was completed in Montana Territory on September 8, 1883, when former President Ulysses S. Grant drove the ceremonial Last Spike. Headquartered first in Brainerd and later Saint Paul, Minnesota, the railway served the northern West with freight, passengers, and land sales. Its flagship was the North Coast Limited. Northern Pacific operated until 1970, when it merged with other lines to form Burlington Northern Railroad. Burlington Northern merged with Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe in 1996 to become BNSF Railway.
