NEW Arcadia Publishing Illinois Central Railroad, IL 9781467115995 Images of Rai With roots dating back to 1851, the Illinois Central Railroad (IC) transported millions of passengers and countless tons of freight.

Most accidents were minor, while others made the national news, such as the October 30, 1972, collision of two commuter trains in Chicago that killed 45 passengers.
