The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad linked Buffalo and Chicago, then broadened its reach through the Lake Erie and Western and Clover Leaf acquisitions in 1922. Known as the Nickel Plate Road, it became part of Norfolk and Western in 1964. This foldable mobile phone display stand brings that railroad history to a desk or everyday viewing space, offering collectors a practical way to keep a favorite company story close at hand.
The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad, commonly known as the Nickel Plate Road, operated from 1881 to 1964 across parts of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri. Organized on February 3, 1881, it was built to connect Buffalo and Chicago in competition with the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway. Its first trains ran over the full system on October 16, 1882. Ownership changed over time: the Seney Syndicate sold the railroad to William H. Vanderbilt in 1882, and the Van Sweringen brothers acquired control in 1916. Under president John J. Bernet, the railroad expanded through purchases of the Lake Erie and Western Railroad in 1922 and the Toledo, St. Louis and Western Railroad, also called the Clover Leaf Route, later that year. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway gained control in 1937 and ended its control in 1947. The Nickel Plate leased the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway in 1949. On October 16, 1964, it merged with Norfolk and Western Railway and other carriers. Norfolk and Western later combined with Southern Railway in 1982 to form Norfolk Southern.
