The Chicago Railroad Fair was an event organized to celebrate and commemorate 100 years of railroad history west of Chicago, Illinois. It was held in Chicago in 1948 and 1949 along the shore of Lake Michigan and is often referred to as “the last great railroad fair” with 39 railroad companies participating. The board of directors for the show was a veritable “Who’s Who” of railroad company executives.
