Racine once had a Chicago & North Western Railway (C&NW) mainline, a Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad (Milwaukee Road) secondary line and a Chicago, North Shore & Milwaukee Railroad (CNS&M) mainline. Today, the former C&NW line is owned by Union Pacific Railroad, while the former Milwaukee Road and CNS&M have been abandoned.
