Cincinnati and Lake Erie Railroad, Industrial archaeology
Posted by 081552 on Monday, January 5, 2009 7:49 PM

Is there anything left of the Cincinnati and Lake Erie Railroad such as shops, stations, old row? I know about the Cincinnati subway, which was to be served by interurbans.

 

Thanks

Severa; of the "Red Devils", the lightweight highspeed interurban cars were saved.  All ended up either on the Lehigh Valley Transit in Pennsylvania or the Ceder Rapids and Iowa City in Iowa, and I believe several of these ended up in trolleiy museums.   I believe one is at the Shore Line trolley museum in East Haven and Branford, CT.
