If you are ever wondering what it might have been like working for a railroad company in the early 20th century check out this report on the CRI&P valuations and details about the cost of railroad MOW.

Reading this I learned something new -
1.) What Clearing and Grubbing is
2.) Who the general contractor was for La Salle Street station
and perhaps more importantly,  why I never wanted to be an accountant.

I'm not sure what the real purpose of this was, but the CRI&P was in bankruptcy (2nd) around 1917.
