Burlington
Started Here in
the Year 1869
Plans of Government for Expansion
of Iowa Road Held Up by Civil
War was Resumed Here.
The Burlington railroad seventy
years ago in July started active work
on the Burlington & Missouri River
Railroad in Nebraska, by which name
the system from Plattsmouth to Den
ver was known for a great many
years.
With the gradual opening of the
great western plains states and the
fast losing struggle of the Indians
with the whites, the government was
faced with the necessity of railroad
connections that would closer bind
the more populous east with the
new country where settlers soon
were to seek homes.
The federal government in 1862 as
a move to overcome the dangers of
secession of California where there
was much southern sympathy, au
thorized the construction of the Cen
tral and Union Pacific railroads that
came year and in July 1864 the gov
ernment invited the Burlington rail
road in Iowa, to build 200 miles of
line in Nebraska, as far west as
Fort Kearney, this to furnish an east
ern outlet to the Union Pacific.
The government offered as an in
ducement 2,373,150 acres of land
along the line of the proposed Bur
lington, land that the government
had not been able to dispose of or
to find purchasers for.
Due to the civil war, railroad work
in the Avest was checked and the
Burlington in Iowa was unable to
proceed with the plans of further ex
pansion to the west. The line to
Pacific Junction was completed in
1869 and in May, 1869 the Burling
ton & Missouri River Railroad in
Nebraska was extended to the Mis
souri river and ferry service pro
vided to Plattsmouth where in July
1S69 the first dirt was turned on
making the line to the west that was
to form a part of the great trans
continental systems.
From this city westward the line
of the railroad had been laid out by
Thomas Doane, construction engi
neer, who later was to be the foun
der of- Doane college at Cete. Led
by John Fitzgerald, the contractor,
a force of hard working and hard
fisted Irish railroaders took up the
task of placing across the South
Platte -country of Nebraska a line
that was to reach the city of Denver,
but only after years of hard work
and privation and danger to the con
struction gangs from the still numer
ous Indians. The line to Kearney
from Plattsmouth was completed in
1S72.
