After construction was completed, the line was opened for business in 1883. In 1887, the company was reorganized as the Louisville, New Albany and Corydon Railroad, a name it kept under various owners for well over a century, until 2006.
It was sold to its main customer, Lucas Oil Products, on May 25, 2006. The line is now known as Lucas Oil Rail Line
