Represent the New York Central Railroad with a comfortable tribute to the system behind Grand Central Terminal, the Water Level Route, and the 20th Century Limited. From its 1853 formation through the Vanderbilt era and later Penn Central succession, NYC remains a powerful railroad-history name. This hoodie or sweatshirt is for train fans, collectors, model railroaders, and anyone who appreciates classic New York-to-Chicago rail travel.
The New York Central Railroad, reporting mark NYC, was formed on May 17, 1853, after New York State approved the consolidation of several earlier railroads. Its roots included the Mohawk and Hudson Railroad, chartered in 1826 and opened in 1831 between Albany and Schenectady. Headquartered in the New York Central Building beside Grand Central Terminal, NYC linked New York and Boston with Chicago and St. Louis through cities including Albany, Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, Rochester and Syracuse. Cornelius Vanderbilt gained control in 1867 and merged NYC with the Hudson River Railroad in 1869, creating the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad. In 1914, operations of eleven subsidiaries were merged to re-form the New York Central Railroad. The company became known as the New York Central System in 1935. Its 20th Century Limited operated between New York and Chicago from 1902 to 1967. NYC merged with the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1968 to form Penn Central; Conrail succeeded Penn Central in 1976, and Conrail assets were divided between CSX and Norfolk Southern in 1999.
