Make the desk a stop on the Northern Pacific Railway. This mouse pad draws on the legacy of NP, chartered in 1864 to span the northern United States and completed with the 1883 Last Spike in Montana Territory. Its story runs from Minnesota and the Dakotas to Puget Sound, with the North Coast Limited and a later Burlington Northern and BNSF connection. Ideal for railfans, historians, collectors, and everyday workspaces.
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.
