The Central Branch Union Pacific Railroad was a railroad in the U.S. state of Kansas. Originally planned as a line from Atchison west into Colorado, and given federal land grants by the Pacific Railway Act of 1862 as one of the branches of the Union Pacific Railroad, it was left with a hanging end at Waterville, Kansas when the Union Pacific Railway, Eastern Division, with which it was to connect, changed its route. The line was acquired by the Union Pacific through a stock purchase by Jay Gould and leased to the Missouri Pacific Railroad in 1880. In 1909 the Central Branch was merged into the Missouri Pacific; the latter company came back into the Union Pacific system in 1982. In 1991 the remaining trackage west of Frankfort was leased to the Kyle Railroad.

  • A Central Branch Union Pacific Railroad era uma ferrovia no estado norte-americano do Kansas. Originalmente planejado como uma linha de Atchison para o oeste do Colorado, e com concessões federais de terras pelo Pacific Railway Act de 1862 como um dos ramos da Union Pacific Railroad, foi deixado com uma ponta suspensa em Waterville, Kansas, quando a Union Pacific Railway, Divisão Leste, com a qual deveria se conectar, mudou sua rota. A linha foi adquirida pela Union Pacific através de uma compra de ações por Jay Gould e arrendada à Missouri Pacific Railroad em 1880. Em 1909, a Central Branch foi incorporada ao Missouri Pacific; esta última empresa voltou para o sistema Union Pacific em 1982. Em 1991, o restante da trilha a oeste de Frankfurt foi arrendado para a Kyle Railroad. (pt)
