In General
On February 1, 2001, the
Company separated 1.1 miles of track located in Kendallville, Indiana from its Michigan
Southern Railroad Company (MSO) subsidiary and began operating as a wholly owned
subsidiary of Pioneer Railcorp under the name Kendallville Terminal Railway Co.
(KTR). This action was taken to
simplify interchange with the Norfolk Southern, the connecting carrier to the KTR, MSO and
EWR. The railroads principal commodities are
sugar and syrup. The rail line was originally a
part of the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railroad (GR&I), which was formed in the
mid-1880's. The GR&I, which ran from Fort Wayne, Indiana to Grand Rapids, Michigan,
later became a part of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR), then Penn Central Railroad (PC)
and finally Conrail (CR), before being sold to the MSO in 1996.
