A shortline railroad is a small or mid-sized railroad company that operates over a relatively short distance relative to larger, national railroad networks.
 The term is used primarily in the United States and Canada.
 In the U.S., railroads are categorized by operating revenue, and most shortline railroads fall into the Class III or Class II categorization defined by the Surface Transportation Board.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (reporting mark ATSF) , often referred to as the Santa Fe or AT&SF, was one of the larger railroads in the United States.
 Chartered in February 1859, the railroad reached the Kansas-Colorado border in 1873 and Pueblo, Colorado, in 1876.
 To create a demand for its services, the railroad set up real estate offices and sold farm land from the land grants that it was awarded by Congress.
 Despite the name, its main line never served Santa Fe, New Mexico, as the terrain was too difficult; the town ultimately was reached by a branch line from Lamy.

The Boston Associates was a term created by historian Vera Shlakmen in "Economic History of a Factory Town, A Study of Chicopee, Massachusetts" (1935) to describe a loosely linked group of investors.

 By 1845, there were 31 textile companies—located in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and southern Maine—produced one-fifth of all cotton and wool textiles in the United States.
 With the capital earned through these mills, they invested in railroads, especially the Boston and Lowell.
 These railroads helped transport the cotton from warehouses to factories.
 These Boston-based investors established banks—such as the Suffolk Bank—and invested in others.
 In time, they controlled 40% of banking capital in Boston, 40% of all insurance capital in Massachusetts, and 30% of Massachusetts' railroads.
 Tens of thousands of New Englanders received employment from these investors, working in any one of the hundreds of their mills.
The United New Jersey Railroad and Canal Company (UNJ&CC) was a railroad company which began as the important Camden & Amboy Railroad (C&A) whose 1830 lineage began as one of the eight or ten earliest permanent North Americanrailroads, and among the first common carrier transportation companies whose prospectus marketed an enterprise aimed (with a priority or principally) at carrying passengers fast and competing with stagecoaches between New York Harbor and Philadelphia-Trenton.
 Among the other earliest chartered or incorporated railroads, only the Mohawk and Hudson Railroad and Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were chartered with passenger services in mind.
 Later after mergers as the UNJ&CC became a subsidiary part of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) system in New Jersey by the later merger and acquisition of several predecessor companies in 1872; which purchases also included the PRR's main line to New York City ("now Amtrak's Northeast Corridor").

 The two Paterson railroads provided a shorter route from Suffern to New York City than did the New York and Erie Railroad.
