The Delaware Otsego Corporation (DO) is an American railroad holding company that is headquartered in Cooperstown, New York.[1][2] The company was established in 1965 as the Delaware Otsego Railroad by Walter G. Rich, and they began to specialize in reactivating abandoned branch lines as profitable short line railroads throughout New York and New Jersey. They were collectively known as the DO System.
Their largest subsidiary is the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway (NYS&W), and reorganizing them expanded DO's status from a short line company to a regional railroad network. Since 1997, DO has been owned by DO Acquisition LLC. As of 2024, the NYS&W and the Central New York Railroad are DO's only remaining subsidiaries.
