Kiamichi Railroad

The Kiamichi Railroad began operations on July 22,1987. It consists of over 230 miles of former Burlington Northern Railroad Company trackage in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas. This mileage has been part of the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway Company (Frisco) prior to its merger with the Burlington Northern. The Kiamichi, named after the Kiamichi River, has two lines, one of which extends from Madill, Oklahoma to Hope, Arkansas, and the other from Antlers, Oklahoma to Paris, Texas. The two lines cross at Hugo, Oklahoma, where the line has its headquarters. In 1988 the Kiamichi handled 32,000 carloads over its system. In 1999, Kiamichi had expanded its carloads to 38,000.
