For nearly a century and a half, Chicago has been the rail hub of the U.S., and the Chicago SouthShore & South Bend Railroad offers its customers interchange options at Chicago that few shortlines can match. With connections to/from all transcontinental railroads including Canadian National and Canadian Pacific as well as all other diverging carriers, our customer’s shipments benefit not only from the ability to use alternate routes, but from the savings that are realized from the competition that these alternatives create.
Below is a list of our connections and the interchange(s) with each railroad.
