American Central Railroad
The American Central Railroad ran nearly due east-west from Ft. Wayne, Indiana to Council Bluffs, Iowa. Robert C. Schenck served as president and Samuel R. Curtis was Chief Engineer from 1853‑55 (Both Schenck and Curtis would serve as Union generals in the Civil War).

This railroad should not be confused with the American Central Railway in Illinois, built 1859-69.
