The Fordyce and Princeton Railroad Company reporting mark|FP is a short-line railroad headquartered in Crossett, Arkansas.

F&P operates convert|57|mi|km of line from Fordyce, Arkansas (where it interchanges with Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi Railroad), to an interchange with Union Pacific at Crossett.

F&P traffic generally consists of lumber and paper products.

F&P incorporated on February 25 1890 as a convert|9.4|mi|km|sing=on line between Fordyce and Toan, Arkansas. The railroad expanded, then downsized to a mere convert|1.14|mi|km of switching track near Fordyce. After the liquidation of Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad, F&P acquired the line between Fordyce and Crossett, via Banks, Craney, Hermitage, Ingalls, Vick, Broad, Emery, and Whitlow.

F&P was owned by Georgia Pacific from 1963 until March 2004, when it was sold to Genesee and Wyoming.
