Comment

The Cedar Valley Road was the vision of the Cass brothers Louis, Joseph, and Claude who already had experience working on main line railroads. There was 140 miles of track. It never had a large ridership in the interurban industry. It had to haul cargo to keep the railroad from dying. In the late 1950's they sold out to the Rock Island and Illinois Central which renamed it the Waterloo Railroad. It became strickly a cargo route at that time.
