Over time I hope to build this site such that each of these railroads will have their own pages with information about dates of operation, type of railways, gauge, locomotives, and all manner of other information.
With over 6,500 different railroads and railways it is a large undertaking and I will likely never finish, but I’ll start with the largest and most famous railroads and then go from there. If you have information you would like to submit about a railroad please feel free to Contact Us and we will try to update the page.
Because the list is so long, please either use the search feature for individual railroads you’re looking for, or browse by state below, some railroads will be listed for multiple states.
