This company was an Ohio-based railroad company founded in 1907 as the Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railway. In 1912 completed a 9.5-mile line from Mogadore to Akron. Effective March 1, 1920, the AC&Y leased the Northern Ohio Railway, an Akron–Delphos, Ohio line that had been part of the New York Central Railroad system via the Lake Erie and Western Railroad.
The ACY and the Northern Ohio were merged on January 14, 1944 into the Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railroad. On October 16, 1964, the Norfolk and Western Railway (N&W) acquired control of the AC&Y, though it continued to operate separately until it was merged on January 1, 1982.
