Page merger edit
The old page "Short-line railroad" was merged into this page on the grounds that sources always use the term "shortline" as one word and never with a dash. For example, in the "Shortline Railway Guide" these railroads are always referred to as a single word. Even in other publications the word "shortline" is the most commonly used term.--FrankieG123 (talk) 16:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed split edit
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result of this discussion was to split the list into its own article. As no objections have been raised in over a month, I am closing this and performing the split. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 23:25, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
This article is currently a combination of a list of shortline railroads in the U.S. by state, and an article on what a shortline railroad is. It should be split, with the railroad list moved to a new list-class article. The list only including U.S. railroads is also a failure to achieve a global viewpoint of the topic, so should be moved from this article for that reason as well.
