The Grand Trunk Western RR was created as a Canadian National subsidiary in 1928; it consists of the Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan trackage of the Grand Trunk Railway. The GTW, a leading carrier of finished automobiles, links Detroit with Chicago. A 1980 merger with the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad gave the GTW a route from Detroit to Cincinnati, as well. In 1970, CN's three U.S. subsidiaries: Grand Trunk Western; Duluth, Winnipeg & Pacific and Central Vermont began to operate together as the Grand Trunk Corporation. Today, CN and it's subsidiaries operate as CN North America.
