About three miles of operation are on CSX.[2] The line was formerly part of the Central Indiana Railway, which had been jointly owned by the New York Central Railroad and Pennsylvania Railroad.
The primary traffic is glass-making materials and cullet shipped from South Anderson Yard to Lapel. Some grain traffic generated in Lapel is shipped to South Anderson.
