Bellefonte Central

Company History: Formed in 1892 from the reorganization of an earlier line, BFC connected Bellefonte and State College, Pennsylvania. The largest source of traffic was limestone. The line to State College was abandoned in 1974, leaving just the three and a half mile line from Bellefonte to the limestone mine. Two years later, the BFC was sold to Kyle Railways. In 1982, the limestone mine closed and the railroad closed the same day.

Successor/Parent History: The Kyle Railroad (reporting mark KYLE) is a regional railroad line that runs from North Central Kansas into Eastern Colorado. It is based in Phillipsburg, Kansas and runs on 561 miles (903 km) track, mostly the former Rock Island Railroad Chicago to Denver main line. The Kyle was owned by Rail America from 2002 to 2012. Genesee & Wyoming Inc. bought RailAmerica in late 2012.

The Kyle Railroad was formed for the 1982 Northern Kansas Harvest season by the Willis B. Kyle Organization, which consisted of several railroad properties, including the San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway, the Oregon, Pacific and Eastern Railway, the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad and the Pend Oreille Valley Railroad. Included was about 243 miles (391 km) of trackage from Belleville, KS to Limon, CO, with trackage rights over the Cadillac and Lake City Railroad from Limon, CO to Colorado Springs, CO. Officially, on September 16, 1980, The Kyle Railroad signed with the MSPA (Mid-States Port Authority) a contract for the Hallam, NE to Limon, CO and Belleville, KS to Clay Center, KS line, as well as 90 miles (140 km) of trackage rights over the Union Pacific Railroad from Limon, CO to Denver, CO, totalling 455 miles (732 km). The Kyle Railroad acted as the MSPA's operator of these lines.
