About Columbus Junction, IA

Columbus Junction began as a settlement located at the intersection of two railroad lines. The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad (also known as the Rock Island [Line]) built an east-west line through the area in 1858, and the perpendicular north-south Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Minnesota Railroad (BCR&M) line was built in 1870. The first local business, a restaurant and boarding house imported via the Rock Island from Muscatine, Iowa, opened the day after a BCR&M train made the inaugural stop and crossing of the newly completed intersection. Just a month later, on March 12, 1870, the town was platted. Neighboring Columbus City had been established before the railroads arrived and both the Rock Island and BCR&M had built their lines over a mile’s distance away.
