From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Maysville and Lexington Railroad, Southern Division, was a 19th- and early 20th-century railway company in north-central Kentucky in the United States. In 1868, along with the Northern Division, it restored the service of the earlier Maysville & Lexington line, which had failed in 1856. The Southern Division was more successful than the Northern, which failed in 1875 and was reörganized as the " North Division". The Southern line survived until 1921, when it and the North Division were purchased by the L&N.

The Southern Division's routes and rights-of-way are today owned by CSX Transportation.
