Of the owned mileage of the Katy, amounting to 1,622.238 miles,
approximately 1,146 miles were acquired in the consolidation of 1899, 456
miles were acquired by purchase, and 20 miles were constructed by the Katy.
Of the 25 corporations that comprise the line of succession culminating in
the Katy as at present constituted, two, the Neosho Valley and Holden
Railway Company and the Labette and Sedalia Railway Company, did not
construct any road or other common-carrier property.
The property constructed by the remaining corporations, the years when the
various portions of the line were constructed, and the manner in which the
Katy acquired the property are indicated in the following table, wherein, to
facilitate comparison with the table showing the corporate succession,
previously given, the same order of corporations is maintained.
