Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad Kids Tee / T-Shirt
Product Details & Size Guide
Share the story of the Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad with a design for curious young train fans. This three-foot narrow-gauge line grew across Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, and its express trains linked Toledo, Cincinnati and East St. Louis during the summer of 1883. Its ambitious expansion and later division offer an inviting starting point for learning about how rail routes changed over time. A fitting choice for family rail outings, school history days and kids who love trains.
The Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad (TC&StL) was a three-foot narrow-gauge line serving Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Its predecessor, the Toledo, Delphos and Burlington Railroad (TD&B), formed on May 23, 1879, through a merger of several railroads. In 1881, the TD&B joined with the Iron Railroad, whose line it had arranged to dual-gauge, and the combined enterprise retained the TD&B name. The TD&B had shifted its planned western terminus from Burlington, Iowa, to East St. Louis, Illinois; a TC&StL subsidiary was formed in February 1881 to build the extension from Kokomo, Indiana. The TD&B and TC&StL merged on February 23, 1882, under the TC&StL name. By March 1, 1883, the extension was operational, and express trains linked Toledo, Cincinnati and East St. Louis that summer across a system of about 780 miles. Financial trouble brought receivership later in 1883. Foreclosure divided the railroad in 1884 and 1885, with successor lines including the Toledo, St. Louis and Kansas City Railroad, Dayton and Toledo Railroad, Dayton and Ironton Railroad, and Cincinnati, Lebanon and Northern Railway.
