Re: Longest NG Railroad in US and Texas NG questions

Here is my candidate for longest, as mentioned by Brian Norden. The mileages are as reported to the Ohio Commissioner of Railroads and Telegraphs in 1883.
This network was formed by mergers in 1883. By 1885, the various chunks had been sold off.
