I am looking for information on the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton (Ohio) Rail Road. The only information I have been able to fine is that it became part of the B & O in the early 1900's. Any information or source would be appreciated.

Information in terms of?, particular interest? Have the 1913 ICC breakdown of the CH&D family tree and there is a lot of older info out there regarding CH&D in its various incarnations. (Wi***he the same was true for the Big 4/ CCC&StL instead of the half-hearted mention in the NYC books that never seem to go west of the Alleghenies.
Have you talked to the archivists at the B&O Railway Museum?

Go to "Cincinnativiews.net". On the main page in yellow click on "transportaion". On that main page in yellow click on "railroads". About halfway down there will be a picture of C.H.&D. RR depot. At the bottom of the screen there is a line with depot trivia about the line as well. You may also be able to find your info. through here also. It is a good website about Cincinnati in general.

Nothing in particular. When my father passed away a few years ago, I found a lantern with "CH&D" stamped in the top and "B&O" eched in the globe. This just sparked my interest as I never have seen any information or mention of the CH&D. I will try to contact the B&O Museum as you suggested. Thanks. Thom
