                    This Amendment No. 5 filed by Union Pacific
          Corporation, a Utah corporation ("UP"), Union Pacific
          Holdings, Inc., a Utah corporation ("UP Holdings"), and
          UP Rail, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("UP Rail"), amends
          the Statement on Schedule 13D, dated April 9, 1992, as
          previously amended (the "Schedule 13D"), with respect to
          the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the
          "Shares"), of Chicago and North Western Transportation
          Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer").  UP, UP
          Holdings and UP Rail are hereinafter collectively
          referred to as the "Reporting Persons."  Capitalized
          terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
          ascribed thereto in the Schedule 13D.

          Item 2.   Identity and Background.

                    Item 2 is hereby supplemented as follows:

                    (a)-(c), (f).  The names, business addresses,
          present principal occupations or employments, and
          citizenship (and the names, principal businesses and
          addresses of the corporations or other organizations in
          which such employment is conducted) of the executive
          officers and directors of each of UP, UP Holdings and UP
          Rail, as amended, are set forth in Schedule I attached
          hereto.

          Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

                    Item 4 is hereby supplemented as follows:

                    As previously disclosed, UP filed an
          application with the Interstate Commerce Commission (the
          "ICC") on January 29, 1993 for an order authorizing the
          common control, within the meaning of the Interstate
          Commerce Act (the "Act"), of the rail subsidiaries of the
          Issuer and of UP.  UP requested that the ICC issue an
          order that would permit UP to, among other things,
          convert its shares of non-voting common stock of the
          Issuer, par value $.01 per share (the "Non-Voting Common
          Stock") into Shares, vote such Shares, acquire additional
          Shares if it determines to do so and (subject to approval
          of the Issuer) coordinate further the services of the
          railroad subsidiaries of UP and the Issuer, in each of
          the above cases without the need to obtain any further
          control authorization from the ICC.  On December 13,
          1994, the commissioners of the ICC voted 4-0 to approve
          UP's application, subject to a standard labor protection
          condition and a requirement that the Soo Line Railroad
          Company ("Soo") be permitted to admit third parties to
          certain joint facilities operated by Soo and the Issuer. 
          Such preliminary approval by the ICC will become final
          and effective upon publication by the ICC of its written
          opinion on this matter and the passage of any applicable
          period of time specified in such opinion (provided that
          no stays have been entered by any court or the ICC prior
          to such time).  Upon such final approval, UP will be
          permitted to take two additional seats on an expanded
          nine-member board of directors of the Issuer.  UP
          currently has the right to designate one member of the
          Issuer's current seven-member board.  UP also intends,
          upon such final ICC approval, to convert its Non-Voting
          Stock into Shares.  In addition, UP plans, upon such
          final ICC approval, to seek to enter into a series of
          marketing and operating coordination arrangements between
          the Union Pacific and Chicago and North Western
          railroads; the actual terms and conditions of such
          arrangements, if any, will be determined based upon
          future negotiations, if any, between UP and the Issuer in
          regard to such arrangements.

                    The Reporting Persons intend to review their
          investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and
          reserve the right to acquire Shares in the open market or
          in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise
          (subject to obtaining final ICC approval), to maintain
          their holdings at current levels or to sell all or a
          portion of their holdings in the open market or in
          privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.  Any such
          actions will depend upon, among other things, the
          availability of Shares for purchase at satisfactory price
          levels; the continuing evaluation of the Issuer's
          business, financial condition, operations and prospects;
          general market, economic and other conditions; the
          relative attractiveness of alternative business and
          investment opportunities; the availability of financing;
          the actions of the management and Board of Directors of
          the Issuer; and other future developments.  Except as set
          forth above and in Item 5 below, the Reporting Persons
          have no present plans or intentions which would result in
          or relate to any of the transactions described in
          subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

          Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

                    Item 5 is hereby supplemented as follows:

                    (a)-(b).  As of the close of business on
          December 14, 1994, UP Rail beneficially owned 12,835,304
          shares of Non-Voting Common Stock.  Assuming the
          conversion of the 12,835,304 shares of Non-Voting Common
          Stock beneficially owned by UP Rail into Shares, such
          Shares would represent, in the aggregate, 29.13% of the
          44,059,760 Shares outstanding as of October 15, 1994, as
          reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
          (the "Form 10-Q"), filed on November 15, 1994 (including
          as outstanding for this purpose the Shares issuable upon
          conversion of the shares of Non-Voting Common Stock).  UP
          Rail has the sole power to dispose or direct the
          disposition of the 12,835,304 shares of Non-Voting Common
          Stock beneficially owned by it and would have the sole
          power to vote or direct the vote (subject to obtaining
          final ICC approval) and the sole power to dispose or
          direct the disposition of the Shares into which the Non-
          Voting Common Stock is convertible.  As discussed in Item
          4 above, UP intends, upon effectiveness of the ICC's
          opinion, to convert its Non-Voting Stock into Shares.

                    Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) promulgated
          under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
          (the "Exchange Act"), UP Rail may be deemed to be the
          beneficial owner of the Shares into which the Non-Voting
          Common Stock is convertible.  As the sole shareholder of
          UP Rail, UP Holdings may be deemed to have voting and
          dispositive power with respect to such shares of Non-
          Voting Common Stock and the Shares into which the Non-
          Voting Common Stock is convertible and may therefore be
          deemed to be the beneficial owner of all such shares.  As
          the sole shareholder of UP Holdings, UP may be deemed to
          have voting and dispositive power with respect to such
          shares of Non-Voting Common Stock and the Shares into
          which the Non-Voting Common Stock is convertible and may
          therefore be deemed to be the beneficial owner of all
          such shares.

                    Pursuant to Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under
          the Exchange Act, to the extent a "group" is deemed to
          exist by virtue of an agreement, dated as of June 21,
          1993 among the parties to the Stockholders Agreement, as
          previously described in the Schedule 13D, each of the
          Reporting Persons could be deemed to have beneficial
          ownership, for purposes of Sections 13(g) and 13(d) of
          the Exchange Act, of all of the equity securities of the
          Issuer beneficially owned by the remaining parties to the
          1993 Agreement.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons could
          be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 14,405,971
          Shares, or approximately 32.70% of the outstanding Shares
          (assuming the conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock
          held by UP Rail into Shares), of which 1,570,667 Shares,
          or 3.56% are owned by certain individuals employed by the
          Issuer, CNW Corporation, an indirect wholly-owned
          subsidiary of the Issuer ("CNW"), or Chicago and North
          Western Railway Company, an indirect wholly-owned
          subsidiary of the Issuer ("CNWT") (collectively, the
          "Management Investors").  Excluding the Shares issuable
          upon conversion of the Non-Voting Common Stock held by UP
          Rail, such Management Investors beneficially own 5.30% of
          the outstanding Shares.

                    The foregoing Share ownership amounts for the
