 Ch. 7; Railroads; An Illustrated History of Monroe County, Iowa 1896
Monroe County has six railroads traversing her domain—namely, the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railway, the Albia, Knoxville and Des Moines Railway (a branch of the C. and Q.), the Iowa Central, the Centerville, Moravia and Albia Railway, the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway, and the Wabash (now defunct).
The road was completed to Albia in 1871, and then the people of the county conceived a plan to have a continuous line from the far North down to the Gulf States, by reviving the plans for the construction of the North Missouri Railroad, which had for a few years lain dormant.
Its length in Monroe County is 11 miles, and its assessed valuation per mile, in 1896, was $2,000, or the total value of the road within Monroe County was fixed at $22,000.
