New York, Ontario, and Western Railway Co.
Variant namesBiographical notes:
The New York, Ontario and Western Railway Company was organized in the late 19th century; its purpose was to provide railroad service in New York State between Lake Ontario and the Adirondack Mountains. By the 1950's, recession and modernization costs drove the company into serious debt. On October 10, 1957, the Interstate Commerce Commission reported the approval of the abandonment of the rail-line and thus closed the terminal facilities at Oswego, New York.
