Became territory: March 2, 1819
Became state: June 15, 1836

Certificates exist for many small railroads that were absorbed into successor companies that are now part of the Union Pacific system. A large number of logging railroads are known to have existed in the state, but they are poorly represented in the known certificate sampling.
