Council Bluffs, Iowa

Council Bluffs is a large town in West Central Iowa, seated on the Missouri River across from Omaha. The town was a major interchange point in Iowa, especially for traffic heading west.
The Chicago & North Western, Illinois Central, Milwaukee Road, Rock Island, Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, Wabash and Chicago Great Western all operated mainline railroads through the town.

Today, the former C&NW is Union Pacific; and the Illinois Central is Canadian National. BNSF owns the former CB&Q and Milwaukee Road. The Rock Island is now Iowa Interstate.
In addition, the Wabash is a trail and the Chicago Great Western has been abandoned.
