Syracuse, Ontario and New York Railway

The Syracuse, Ontario and New York Railway was a railroad operated as the Chenango County, New York branch of the West Shore Railroad from July 1, 1890. On April 2, 1891, the railroad and property of The Syracuse Ontario and New York Railway Company were formally leased, for the term of its corporate existence, to the West Shore Railroad Company. On June 30, 1891, the entire capital stock of the Syracuse, Ontario and New York Railway was surrendered to the West Shore Railroad and the former company was formally absorbed by the latter under authority of law.

The Syracuse, Ontario and New York Railway was formed by articles of association filed in the office of the Secretary of State of New York on June 20, 1883. This last named company subsequently acquired by agreement of purchase the railroad, which had been sold under foreclosure, formerly belonging to the Syracuse, Chenango and New York Railroad, extending from the city of Syracuse in Onondaga County to the village of Earlville in Madison County. The Syracuse, Chenango and New York Railroad was incorporated April 7, 1877, as successor of the Syracuse and Chenango Railroad, which was incorporated May 14, 1873, and sold March 17, 1877. The Syracuse and Chenango Company was the successor of Syracuse and Chenango Valley Railroad, incorporated April 16, 1868, road opened February, 1873, and sold July 8, 1873.
