In 1863 construction began on the Union & Logansport line, linking Union City, in Randolph County, Indiana and Darke County, Ohio, with Logansport, in Cass County, and the Chicago & Great Eastern Railroad. The Pennsylvania Railroad provided some of the financing and the line was completed in 1867. On 12 February 1868 the U&L was consolidated with the Columbus & Indiana Central and the Toledo, Logansport & Burlington to form the Columbus, Chicago & Indiana Central.

This collection consists of three promissory notes for installment payments to the Union & Logansport Railroad Company. The notes state that one third of the amount will be paid when rails are laid down for the track. At six and twelve month intervals the other two-thirds will be paid.
