Hoosier Subdivision
The Hoosier Subdivision is a railroad line owned by CSX Transportation in the U.S. state of Indiana. The line runs from New Albany, Indiana, to Bedford, Indiana, for a total of 72.2 miles. At its south end it continues north from Norfolk Southern and at its north end it comes to an end; it formerly connected here with the Soo Line (ex-Milwaukee Road) and former Canadian Pacific branch from Terre Haute, Indiana. The Indiana Rail Road operated on the Hoosier Subdivision from the Milwaukee Road junction in Bedford to Louisville from 2006 until 2009. The Hoosier Subdivision is considered out of service by CSX but is rail banked in case of future revival. The last train ran between New Albany and Mitchell in 2010 but a small section in New Albany remained in service until 2016 to serve an industry until it closed.[1][2]
On December 19th, 2017 CSX Transportation filed with the Surface Transportation Board to abandon a 62.3 mile majority of the Hoosier Subdivision from Mile Post 00Q 314.0 in New Albany, Indiana, to milepost 00Q 251.7 in Bedford, Indiana.[3]
