About Mediapolis, IA

Mediapolis was founded in the year 1869. It was first a train station for the city of Kossuth, Iowa at a point on the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Minnesota Railway (later part of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific) between Burlington, Iowa and Wapello, Iowa. Media, meaning "middle," was appended to polis, meaning "village," as Mediapolis is halfway between Wapello and Burlington. From 1875 to the mid 20th century, Mediapolis was a railroad junction where the Burlington and Northwestern Railway to Washington, Iowa (later a branch of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy) met the original north-south line. The Rock Island Railroad ceased operation in 1980, leading to the abandonment of the north-south line through Mediapolis.
