Answer 2

I couldn't find one with a web search, and I've never heard of one.  It possibly could have been an historical short line that was bought by a larger road, such as the B & O, but nothing that I could find.  It might help to know where Springfield is.

If you're looking for a name for a fictional model railroad that hasn't been or isn't being used in real life, I think you're in the clear.
