Youngstown Belt Railroad
The Youngstown Belt Railroad is a part of the Ohio Central Railroad System, which was bought by Genesee & Wyoming Inc. in 2008, serving the area northwest of Youngstown, Ohio. It began operations in 1997, mainly on ex-Erie Railroad trackage owned by the affiliated Warren and Trumbull Railroad (W&T), which acquired the "Lordstown Cluster" from Conrail in 1996. It also leases a short ex-Baltimore and Ohio Railroad segment from CSX Transportation, formerly operated by the W&T.
The company operates in three separate areas near Warren, Niles, and Youngstown, connected by trackage rights over the Norfolk Southern Railway. In addition to its connections with affiliated railroads - the Warren and Trumbull Railroad at Warren and the Mahoning Valley Railway and Youngstown and Austintown Railroad at Youngstown - it interchanges in Youngstown with the Norfolk Southern at Haselton Yard〔Norfolk Southern Corporation, (List of Short Lines: Youngstown Beltline Railroad ) (), accessed February 2009〕 and with CSX.〔CSX Corporation, (Short Line Partners: Youngstown Belt Railroad ), accessed February 2009〕
==History==
The YB's trackage near Youngstown and Niles includes pieces of a former main line, completed in 1856 by the Cleveland and Mahoning Railroad, a predecessor of the Erie Railroad.〔Christopher T. Baer, (PRR Chronology ), accessed February 2009〕 Other ex-Erie trackage includes two branches to Leadville (connecting with the Youngstown and Austintown Railroad there) and the U.S. Steel Ohio Works,〔(Railroad Switching District: Youngstown Ohio ), 1934〕 and the portion of the line at Warren north of the Warren and Trumbull Railroad junction (opened by the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad as part of a main line to Dayton in 1863〔). The remainder of the Warren line was opened in 1873 by the Ashtabula, Youngstown and Pittsburgh Railroad, a Pennsylvania Railroad predecessor.〔 Conrail sold all of these lines to the Warren and Trumbull Railroad in 1996,〔STB Finance Docket No. 33012, 1996〕 and later that year the W&T leased a connecting ex-Baltimore and Ohio Railroad line near Youngstown from CSX Transportation.〔STB Finance Docket No. 33118, 1996〕 Effective January 1, 1997, the Youngstown Belt Railroad began operating this trackage under lease.〔Railroad Retirement Board, (Employer Status Determination: The Youngstown Belt Railroad Company ), 1997〕
