I had the opportunity about 25 years ago to ride the TT and the ex-NKP thru Bellevue on an Amtrak Lake Shore reroute. I remember the TT was double track, but you could see the other track was pretty rough, with chunks missing from the railhead. I also used to drive past the upper Maumee River bridge, where it parallels the Ohio Turnpike, about ever year or two. It was sad to see the bridge rails removed some years back.
Most of the west side of the loop is removed.
