Defunct railroad company

The Frankfort and Kokomo Railroad was a small railroad company that operated approximately 25 miles (40 km) of track between the Indiana cities of Frankfort and Kokomo. The F&K's rail line, laid down in 1873, was generally of poor condition and made the cars that traveled along it jog from side to side, leading to its nickname "The Rabbit Track Line". The first train cars made the trip between the two cities on May 28, 1874.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
