Omaha, Lincoln and Beatrice Railway


The Omaha, Lincoln and Beatrice Railway, "The Big Red Line", was founded in 1903 as an attempt to carry passengers between the three Nebraska cities. Although it never extended outside Lincoln, the OL&B currently exists as a Class III switching railroad in Lincoln. It has been owned by NEBCO, Inc. since 1929.
