History
The tracks that the Ohio Terminal Railway operates on was originally a branch line of the Pennsylvania Railroad that served the Ormet aluminum plant in Hannibal.[1] The line changed hands to Penn Central and then to Conrail. In 1996, Ormet Railroad Corporation took over operations of the line from Conrail.[2] Hannibal Real Estate LLC bought a part of the plant site from Ormet in 2007 to establish the Hannibal Industrial Park and was given an easement over the railroad line.[1][2] In April 2013, the Ohio Terminal Railway began operations on the line. On April 18, 2021, Katahdin Rail Services took over operations of the railroad from Carload Express.[1]
