Historical Context
The Lake Ontario, Auburn and New York Railroad was chartered in 1852 to build a 74-mile line from Fair Haven, via Auburn to Pugley's Station where a connection was planned with Cayuga & Susquehanna Railroad.
The company had graded the line between Fair Haven and Auburn, but ran out of money without ever laying track. The new Southern Central Railroad was chartered on September 6, 1865, to complete this work and build a line from Fair Haven due south to Owego, New York, where it could interchange traffic with the Erie Railroad.
The railroad opened between Owego and Auburn on March 8, 1870.
