GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY
BEST DIVISION 1968 MESABI --EMPLOYEE SAFETY AWRDED DUAL PACK OF PLAYING CARDS
I MEANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE CARDS READ "1965" BUT THE AWARD YEAR IS "1968. I OBTAINED THESE LIKE THIS. I CAN ONLY THINK THAT THE AWARD MAY HAVE STARTED IN 1965 AND NEW BOXES WERE PRODUCED EACH YEAR. THAT IS ALL I CAN SAY.
"DUAL OPENED PACKS OF PLAYING CARDS" THESE APPEAR TO HAVE NEVER BEEN PLAYED OR SHUFFLED. JUST VIEW THE PICTURES. BOTH DECKS ARE COMPLETE.
the Great Northern Railway was an
American
Class I railroad
. Running from
Saint Paul, Minnesota
, to
Seattle
,
Washington
, it was the creation of 19th-century railroad entrepreneur
James J. Hill
and was developed from the
Saint Paul & Pacific Railroad
. The Great Northern's route was the northernmost
transcontinental railroad
route in the U.S.
In 1970, the Great Northern Railway merged with three other railroads to form the
Burlington Northern Railroad
, which merged in 1996 with the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway
to form the
Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway
.
The Great Northern was the only successfully built privately funded transcontinental railroad in U.S. history.

No federal subsidies were used during its construction, unlike all other transcontinental railroads.
