The Frankfort and Kokomo Railroad was a defunct American railroad company that laid roughly 25 miles of track between Frankfort and Kokomo, Indiana, established in 1870 and opening for service on 28 May 1874. Known locally as the Rabbit Track Line for its poor condition and swaying cars, the company was converted to narrow gauge and absorbed into the Toledo, Cincinnati and St Louis Railroad in 1881, and its line was later returned to standard gauge and operated as part of the Toledo, St Louis and Kansas City Railroad, known as the Clover Leaf.
