I found another: Pinkerton (the detective agency). It was established around 1850 and, according to information on Wikipedia, it’s part of Securitas AB, a Swedish-based company.

Long Island Rail Road was chartered in 1834. Celebrated 190th anniversary last year.

I was thinking that Wells Fargo might be another. However, according to Wikipedia, the company, founded in 1852, went defunct in 1998, which would disqualify them. Glad to learn that Long Island Rail Road has been in operation for as long as it has! That’s good to know. Thanks for the info.!
