DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
This post-effective amendment (this
“Post-Effective Amendment”) is filed by Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”)
and Boardwalk Pipelines, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Boardwalk Pipelines”), to amend the Partnership’s
and Boardwalk Pipelines’ registration statement on Form S-3, Registration No. 333-208626 (the “Registration Statement”),
that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 18, 2015 and which became
effective on January 6, 2016. The Registration Statement registered the offer and sale by the Partnership of an unspecified number
of
(i) common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“common
units”), (ii) preferred units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“preferred units”),
(iii) partnership securities representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“partnership securities”),
(iv) warrants to purchase common units, preferred units or partnership securities and (v) rights to purchase common
units, preferred units or partnership securities. The Registration Statement also registers the offer and sale by Boardwalk Pipelines
of (
i) its d
ebt securities (“debt securities”), which may be fully and
unconditionally guaranteed by the Partnership, and may also be guaranteed by one or more of the Partnership’s subsidiaries,
(ii) warrants to purchase the debt securities, and (iii) rights to purchase the debt securities.
The Partnership has decided to deregister
all of the common units, preferred units, partnership securities and all the warrants and rights to purchase common units, preferred
units and partnership securities which are authorized for sale under the Registration Statement but which remain unsold to date.
Pursuant to the undertaking contained in Item 17(a)(3) of the Registration Statement, the Partnership and Boardwalk Pipelines
file this post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to remove from registration all remaining unsold amounts of common
units, preferred units, partnership securities and warrants and rights to purchase common units, preferred units and partnership
securities. Except as set forth herein, the Registration Statement remains effective in all respects.

each of the registrants certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on
Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized,
in the City of Houston, State of Texas on July 19, 2018.
