FYI, the reason that song means something is because this is the train line that Abraham Lincoln signed legislation to create and has been running daily service almost uninterrupted since the end of the Civil War.

You seem to be referring to the Pacific Railroad Act. But that created the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific, not the Illinois Central.

Now, the Illinois Central was a land grant railroad, but it received the land grants in 1850, under President Fillmore, not under Lincoln.
