About Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway

The Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway, established in 1869, and sometimes referred to as the Lake Shore, was later became a major part of the New York Central Railroad's Water Level Route from Buffalo, New York, to Chicago, Illinois, primarily along the south shore of Lake Erie and across northern Indiana. The line remains a major rail transportation corridor used by Amtrak passenger trains and several freight railroads; in 1998, its ownership was split at Cleveland, Ohio, between CSX Transportation to the east and Norfolk Southern Railway in the west.
