Akron,
Canton and Youngstown Railway - (en)
The Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railway (AAR reporting marks ACY) was a
Class I railroad that existed between 1907 and 1982. This railroad ran
from Akron, Ohio west to Delphos, Ohio.
In 1944 the ACY was merged with the Northern Ohio Railway, forming the
Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railroad. 
In 1964, the AC&Y was acquired
by the Norfolk and Western Railway, though it continued to operate
separately until it was merged on January 1, 1982.
On June 1, 1990, Norfolk Southern Railway sold remaining trackage of the
original Akron, Canton and Youngstown to a new shortline railway, the
Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway (reporting marks WE). The Wheeling and Lake
Erie operates former ACY trackage as far west as Carey, Ohio and as far
east as Mogadore, Ohio.
As of 2006, the AC&Y building still stands on Exchange Street in Akron,
Ohio. Norfolk Southern interchanges are at Sterling and Akron under the Y
bridge. Trains are then routed into the Norfolk Southern Bellevue yard.
