Garrett Subdivision

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Garrett Subdivision is a railroad line owned and operated by CSX Transportation in the U.S. states of Ohio and Indiana. The line runs from Deshler, Ohio west to Willow Creek, Indiana (near Portage)[1][2] along a former Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road line. At its east end, just east of Deshler, the Garrett Subdivision becomes the Willard Subdivision. The line crosses the Toledo Subdivision at Deshler and ends at the junction with the Porter Subdivision and Barr Subdivision at Willow Creek.

[edit] History

The line was opened by the Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Chicago Railway in 1874.[3] It became part of the B&O and CSX through leases and mergers.
