Corporate records, 1850-1956.

ArchivalResource

Corporate records, 1850-1956.

The records represent the Pennsylvania, Ohio & Detroit Railroad Company and 47 of its predecessors in the territory covered by the Central System. These include the records of several jointly-operated terminal lines, particularly the Akron & Barberton Belt Railroad. Most companies are represented only by minute books, although there are also board papers, account books, stock ledgers and annual reports to the I.C.C. for many firms. The minutes are typically most informative for the periods prior to PRR control.
