The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad
( NKP), abbreviated NYC&St.L
was a railroad that operated in the mid-central United States. Commonly referred to
as the Nickel Plate Road, the railroad served a large area, including trackage in
the
states of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri.
Its primary connections included Buffalo, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Indianapolis,
St. Louis, and Toledo.
The Nickel Plate Railroad was constructed in 1881
along the South Shore of the Great Lakes connecting
Buffalo and Chicago to compete with the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway. In 1964
the
Nickel Plate Road and several other mid-western carriers were merged into the larger
Norfolk and Western Railway (N&W). The goal of the N&W expansion was to form a
more
competitive and successful system serving 14 states and the Canadian province of Ontario
on more
than 7,000 miles (11,000 km) of railroad.
The profitable N&W was itself combined with the Southern Railway, another profitable
carrier,
to form Norfolk Southern Corporation (NS) in 1982.
At the end of 1960 NKP operated 2,170 miles
(3,490 km) of road on 4,009 miles (6,452 km) of track,
not including the 25 miles (40 km) of Lorain & West Virginia. That year it
reported 9758 million
net ton-miles of revenue freight and 41 million passenger-miles.
