After an 1872 merger with two small railroads, the corporate name was changed to "Cleveland and Mahoning Valley Railroad". The railroad leased itself to the <a href="/wiki/Atlantic_and_Great_Western_Railroad" title="Atlantic and Great Western Railroad">Atlantic and Great Western Railway</a> in 1863.
