Jimmy,

The Toledo and Ohio Central had two lines extending southeast out of Toledo for about 200 miles, one line going through Columbus.  It was incorporated June 29, 1885, and included several predecessor railroads.  It was acquired by the Hocking Valley in December 1899, and subsequently leased by the NYC January 31, 1922.

Its main claim to fame, so far as I know, is that in July 1927 the NYC installed world's first CTC signal system on the T&OC between Berwick, OH  and Stanley Yard, some 40 miles of single track.
