==History==
The VCRR's earliest predecessor, the Bakersfield and Ventura Railway, was incorporated in February 1903, and in about 1905 opened its lines, which included one east to Round Mountain (near the Camarillo State Hospital), in addition to the presently operated lines. It was sold at foreclosure in December 1906, and later acquired by the Bakersfield and Ventura ''Railroad'', incorporated in June 1908. The property was again sold in June 1911 to the Ventura County Railway, which had been incorporated in May in the interests of the American Beet Sugar Company (renamed American Crystal Sugar Company in 1934), which owned a beet sugar factory at Oxnard.〔Interstate Commerce Commission, 43 Val. Rep. 287 (1933): Valuation Docket No. 1126, Ventura County Railway Company〕 Passenger trains were operated until 1926.〔Edward A. Lewis, American Shortline Railway Guide, 5th Edition, Kalmbach Publishing, 1996, pp. 321-322〕 Martin V. Smith purchased the line in 1958. The Ventura County Railroad, organized by RailAmerica to lease the line, began operations in September 1998.〔Railroad Retirement Board, (Employer Status Determination: Ventura County Railroad Company ), 1998〕
