The Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railroad was a 19th-century railway company in the U.S. state of Kentucky. It operated from 1869, when it was created from the merger of the Louisville and Frankfort and Lexington and Frankfort railroads,[1] until 1877, when it failed and was reincorporated as the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railway.[citation needed][dubious – discuss]
