The Maysville and Lexington Railroad was a 19th-century railway company in Kentucky in the United States, connecting Maysville on the Ohio River with Lexington at the center of the state.[1] It operated from 1850[1] to 1856, when it failed.[citation needed] It was subsequently re-established as two separate companies – a Northern and a Southern division, in 1868.[1] Both were eventually incorporated into the L&N[1] and today make up part of the CSX Transportation system.[citation needed]
