Description
The
Northern Pacific Railroad
(NP) was a
major US railroad that served the north-central and north-western portions of the country
, with a
small amount of trackage into Canada
. It had lines in Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin in the US, plus Manitoba and British Columbia in Canada. The NP
operated several famous "named" trains
, to include the
North Coast Limited
and the
Mainstreeter
. The NP merged
with three other railroads in 1970 to form the Burlington Northern
and ceased to exist as a corporate entity. Surviving trackage is now a part of
BNSF
.
