The Chicago Railways Company was incorporated in 1903. It was a independent company until 1913, when it became a partner in the Chicago Surface Lines. The Chicago Surface Lines partnership lasted until 1947 when the Chicago Transit Authority was created by an act of the Illinois General Assembly. At that time Chicago Railways Company ceased to exist and its properties were merged into the new CTA.
