Operated railroads[edit]

Cincinnati and Muskingum Valley Railway - leased March 25, 1873, retroactive to January 1, began operating May 1
- PRR ordered lease annulled July 25, 1874, as earnings are unsatisfactory
- operated on its own after 1890s reorganization but controlled by PRR
- merged into Cleveland, Akron and Cincinnati Railway 1911, PRR operation began January 1, 1912
Chartiers Railway - leased December 8, 1871, operation began January 1, 1872
Chicago, Indiana and Eastern Railway - began operating May 1, 1907 under agreement May 10
Louisville Bridge Company - agreed to join operation June 5, 1872 retroactive to August 1, 1871

Is this right?[edit]

Is this sentence right:

(taking effect 1 January 1917), the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railway merged with the Vandalia Railroad, Pittsburgh, Wheeling and Kentucky Railroad, Anderson Belt Railway and Chicago, Indiana and Eastern Railway, forming the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad.

Linked dates[edit]

This article has quite a high link density. In order to reduce this, I suggest that the date links be removed - these specific dates are not particularly relevant to the events described, and date linking purely for the purpose of autoformatting is discouraged (cf. MOS:UNLINKDATES) Since I haven't been working on this article, I wanted to bring it up here first. --Wormcast (talk) 05:09, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just do it; if anyone complains, screw 'em. --NE2 05:13, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References link section[edit]

I removed one dead link from this articles reference section today. All content of that link had been removed. The references should be examined to see if the links are active, or if PUBLISHED reference material would be more permanent. 69.143.156.77 (talk) 20:01, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
