Dakota Minnesota and Eastern Railroad - 2002–present: consolidation with IC&E
DM&E hauled nearly 60,000 carloads of various freight shipments in fiscal year 2002, serving approximately 130 customers along the railroad's mainline. Of these shipments, 53% were grains or grain products, 24% were bentonite and kaolin clay, 7% were cement and 5% were wood and lumber products; the remaining 11% were split among all other types of freight.[16]
On February 21, 2002 DM&E announced that it would purchase the railroad assets of 1700-mile I&M Rail Link (IMRL) from its then current owners Washington Companies and Canadian Pacific Railway. DM&E renamed the IMRL property to Iowa, Chicago and Eastern Railroad (IC&E). Although a purchase price wasn't stated in the original announcement, an article in the May 2002 Trains Magazine suggests that several industry sources believed the total to be around $150 million.[17]
DM&E and IC&E combined management under the holding company Cedar American Rail Holdings. Locomotives of both railroads were given a unified paint scheme (see below) and interchanges were streamlined between the two railroads. The administration of both railroads is handled by Cedar, further streamlining processes between the two railroads. As a result, the combined DM&E/IC&E system makes up the largest Class II railroad (by route-miles) in the United States; it is also the eighth largest system of all American railroads and the only system with direct rail connections with all Class I railroads in North America.
