The Rochester, Lockport and Niagara Falls Railroad was a railway company in the United States. It was incorporated in 1850 to acquire the bankrupt Lockport and Niagara Falls Railroad and develop a new route between its three namesake cities. This new line opened in 1852. The railroad was consolidated with nine other railroads in 1853 to form the first New York Central Railroad.
