Can anyone solve a mystery for me? In my SPV Railroad Atlas; Great Lakes East volume is a railroad line in Ohio listed as WOHO. The letters WOHO are shown next to the line but in the index of railroads at the back of the atlas the word WOHO is not listed. Is this a operating railroad is it one that has since quit operations? I would like to know what locomotives it has, commodities hauled and what businesses it serves.
Hello,
Does this show up on a map or what? If on a map, what are the cities served by the rail line?

per the link above its the Wabash and Ohio.
I did a quick google search and didn’ find any aditional info
I checked my three RR atlases and the reporting marks data sheet in the NMRA data book and see no reference. This may be a deliberate mistake. Atlas makers sometimes (frequently?) include something non existant so they can prove someone copied their map and violated their copyright.
Enjoy

IIRC, WOHO was a partial successor to Indiana Hi-Rail Corp. which was split into 2 different divisions after union troubles. Wabash and Ohio was one, but I don’t recall the other division’s name. HTH[8D]
