New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad
- New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad
The New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad (NYPANO) was organized from the bankrupt Atlantic and Great Western Railroad in March 1880.
The road was owned by five of the English investors in the A&GW and ran from Chicago to Salamanca. J. H. Devereaux, former president of the A&GW, was elected first president of the new company. Devereaux was succeeded by Jarvis M. Adams who, on March 6, 1883, leased the NYPANO to the New York, Lake Erie and Western Railway (later the Erie Railroad). On February 24, 1896 the NYPANO was sold under foreclosure to representatives of the Erie.
The New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio was originally built on a 6 foot gauge between the rails. On June 22, 1880 the line was converted to standard gauge.
