The C,C & P was a short lived "Regional Railroad" created from the sale of the Illinois Central Gulf railroad's Iowa Division Mainline.This rail line ran between Chicago Illinois and Waterloo Iowa for approximately 11 years. The newly reorganized Illinois Central, bought the line back around 1996, and operated it as such until the big merger with the Canadian National Railroad in 1999. A trio of former Illinois Central Gulf diesel locomotives is bringing the train of mostly grain hoppers into Chicago Illinois.
