The Cimarron Valley Railroad (reporting mark CVR) was formed May 29, 1996 in Utah.[1] In that year it purchased from what was then Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad (now BNSF Railway) trackage built c. 1912, being the former C.V. and Manter Subdivisions of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad tracks in Oklahoma, Colorado and Kansas. One line runs from Dodge City, Kansas, to Boise City, Oklahoma, the other from Satanta, Kansas, to Springfield, Colorado. The CVR runs a total of 254 miles of track primarily hauling agricultural commodities (such as wheat, corn, and milo), along with sand, cement, poles, pipe, and fertilizers.[2] CVR was one of several short-line railroads operated by The Western GroupofOgden, Utah.
As of November 2009, the Kansas Department of Transportation and partners were planning a renovation and upgrade of the line.[3]
On November 1, 2020, the CVR was purchased by Jaguar Transport Holdings.[4]
