The C&NW would have been the Galena & Chicago Union RR then, wouldn't it? I think it was the "first" railroad in the region. It ran west through Rockford to Freeport. The IC Charter line connected there, and went west to Galena. As I recall, common thinking then was that Galena was to grow into Metropolis.
