The company, originally known as the Choctaw Coal and Railway Company, ran between West Memphis, Arkansas and western Oklahoma. In 1901 the company built a subsidiary line, the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Texas Railroad, to continue its route west into Texas, and by 1902 the railroad had extended as far west as Amarillo.
