The ''Twin Star Rocket'' was a passenger train operated by the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad. Introduced on January 14, 1945, it was the only new streamlined train permitted to enter service in World War II by the U.S. Government. The new train became the second longest north–south train itinerary under the management of a single railroad in the United States (and the longest measured by great circle distance) with its northern terminal at the Milwaukee Road’s Minneapolis, Minnesota depot and southern terminal away at Houston, Texas. The name of the new streamlined train was derived from its terminal states—Texas being known as the ''Lone Star State'' and Minnesota as the ''North Star State''. ==Services== The Rock Island assigned the two ''Rocket'' train sets from the ''Kansas City–Minneapolis Rocket'', and one train set from the Kansas City–Dallas ''Texas Rocket'' was transferred to the new ''Twin Star Rocket''. The other ''Texas Rocket'' train set then began operating a daily round trip ''Rocket'' service between Oklahoma City and Kansas City. Another of the three-car ''Rocket'' trains operated an Oklahoma City–Dallas round trip daily.
