The Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad (TC&StL) was a narrow-gauge railroad based in Ohio. It began as a subsidiary of the Toledo, Delphos and Burlington Railroad (TD&B), which was opened on July 4, 1875, but in 1882 the two companies merged and retained the TC&StL name, which was more descriptive of its extent. The financially troubled system was split at foreclosure in 1884 and 1885 as follows:
- Cincinnati Division, built by the TD&B: Dayton, Lebanon and Cincinnati Railroad
- Cincinnati Northern Division, ex-Cincinnati Northern Railway: Cincinnati, Lebanon and Northern Railway
- Dayton Division, completed by the TD&B: Dayton and Toledo Railroad
- Iron Division, ex-Iron Railroad: Iron Railway
- St. Louis and Toledo Divisions (split at Kokomo), completed by the TC&StL: Toledo, St. Louis and Kansas City Railroad
- Southeastern Division, ex-Dayton and South Eastern Railroad: Dayton and Ironton Railroad
