Delaware and Hudson Railway
The Delaware and Hudson Railway (reporting mark DH) is a railroad that operates in the northeastern United States that is owned and operated by the Canadian Pacific Railway under the rail subsidiary Soo Line Corporation which also controls the Soo Line Railroad, Canadian Pacific Railway is owned by Canadian Pacific Railway Limited.
The name itself originates from the 1823 New York state corporation charter listing the unusual name of "The President, Managers and Company of the Delaware & Hudson Canal Co." authorizing an establishment of "water communication" between the Delaware River and the Hudson River.
Nicknamed "The Bridge Line to New England and Canada," the D&H helped connect New York with Montreal, Quebec and New England. It called itself "North America's oldest continually operated transportation company." In 1991, after more than 150 years as an independent railroad, the D&H was purchased by Canadian Pacific Railway (CP).
On September 19, 2015, Norfolk Southern Railway commenced acquisition of Delaware & Hudson's "South Line", the 282 miles from Schenectady, New York to Sunbury, Pennsylvania from CP. The Delaware & Hudson "South Line" is a rail route that now consists of two rail lines, the Sunbury Line and the Freight Line; the Sunbury Line absorbed the Nicholson Cutoff during that rail line's history.
