What is Maumee and Western Railroad mean?
The Michigan Southern Railroad (doing business as Napoleon, Defiance & Western Railroad, formerly Maumee & Western reporting - MAW) is a freight railroad in the United States operating between Woodburn, Indiana and Napoleon, Ohio and comprises 58 miles of track. The railroad originally extended to Toledo; portions have been converted to a rail trail.
There is currently railcar storage in Napoleon, Ohio. The line is used Monday through Saturday between Defiance and Napoleon, upon request in Woodburn, and between Woodburn to Defiance where the railroad's main yard is. The track, which runs over the swamp ground for much of its length, is in an extremely poor state of repair, having had no maintenance since the early 1970s.
The railroad was purchased by Pioneer Railcorp on December 28, 2012, which announced the intention to repair and extend it. Pioneer described the line as "in dire need of rehabilitation", and it began extensive rehabilitation in January 2013, replacing decayed cross ties and broken rail.
There are two interchanges:
