About Elgin

Elgin, IL, located about 35 miles northwest of Chicago, is a city with a rich history and a vibrant community. Founded in 1835, Elgin was originally a small farming community. However, with the arrival of the railroad in the late 19th century, the city experienced a period of rapid growth and industrialization. The railroad played a crucial role in the transportation of goods, connecting Elgin to other major cities and markets, and fueling the local economy.

Today, Elgin continues to be an important transportation hub in the region. The city is served by several major highways, including Interstate 90, which connects Elgin to Chicago and other cities in the Midwest. In addition, Elgin is home to a busy freight rail yard, operated by the Canadian National Railway. The rail yard handles a wide range of commodities, including agricultural products, chemicals, and manufactured goods. With its strategic location and excellent transportation infrastructure, Elgin remains a key player in the freight transportation industry.
