The Milwaukee Road: Its First Hundred Years is a 1948 non-fiction book on American railroad history by August Derleth. It is an account of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad , which was founded in 1847 as the Milwaukee and Waukesha Rail Road, and was known as the "Milwaukee Road".
The Milwaukee Road added a second train to the route on January 21, 1939, and the two trains were known as the Morning Hiawatha and Afternoon Hiawatha, although the brand Twin Cities Hiawatha was often employed.
