McDonald's should next show someone wearing a Chicago & North Western shirt since the company is based in Chicago.

Nope! They're in Oak Brook, IL. Beautiful corporate campus. Ex wife used to work there in distribution. NS made her mad once (I got 'em beat on that one). They delivered a reefer car of frozen fries that wasn't still frozen. NS bought the load, then sold it.
So all these off condition non frozen potatoes went out in McDonald's logo boxes. Ronald will not put up with that. She took the business away from the NS over that. And they didn't get it back. The freight changed to a TOFC move into Chicago, truck delivery to Cleveland.
Do not mess with the mouse or the clown.
"By many measures, the U.S. freight rail system is the safest, most efficient and cost effective in the world." - Federal Railroad Administration, October, 2009. I'm just your average, everyday, uncivilized howling "anti-government" critic of mass government expenditures for "High Speed Rail" in the US. And I'm gosh darn proud of that.
