message: "C&O's passenger services ended in 1971 with the formation of Amtrak."  - This statement in the introductory section seems wrong; the C&O RR handled passengers on the Lake Michigan car ferries until at least the early 1980s (the C&O ferries were sold to the Michigan & Wisconsin Trans. Co. in 1983).  C&O's passenger totals were 197,000 in 1971, 126,000 in 1979. The 1970s were operated by and for the C&O RR; the early 1980s were a C&O contract service for the DOT.  - See Lake ferry service to run this summer (The Milwaukee Journal - June 5 1981) — Mmathu (talk) 18:47, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

message: The C&O operated in Wisconsin also; they had a permanent switcher assigned to the car ferry dock and had trackage there.  See More Classic American Railroads by Mike Schafer (page 25). Mmathu (talk) 14:26, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

message: This company owned/operated one bridge and one mile of track for three years before it was purchased by the C&O. It does not seem to meet WP:GNG. MB 04:12, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems more like it would be better suited for an article on the bridge itself. ---------User:DanTD (talk)  14:02, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

text: I agree with DanTD. --YoungstownToast (talk) 02:14, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I found a little more historic info about this, specifically on Historic Aerials as well as the Open Railways Map. It's clear that this particular C&O Bridge that the Kanawha Bridge and Terminal Company was in charge of is now named the "Travis L. Castle Railroad Trestle," and is currently slated for transformation into a rail trail bridge. P.S., the "Kanawha and Michigan Railway" is now part of Norfolk Southern Railway's West Virginia Secondary. ---------User:DanTD (talk)  07:31, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

text: I've moved to a bridge-focussed page (Kanawha Bridge), but perhaps the title of the page should be changed. Klbrain (talk) 06:36, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed merge of [[Kanawha Bridge and Terminal Company]] into [[Chesapeake and Ohio Railway]] 

message: The pages on Chicago's train stations say the C&O used Central, then Dearborn, than Central again, but it says for the latter only until the 1930s and not what it used afterword. Given it was doing fairly well during the Great Depression I doubt it would have tried to stop all passenger services out of Chicago and even if they did I doubt even more the ICC would have let them. When it acquired the PM it used La Salle and later the C&NW terminal but only for services on ex-PM tracks I'm fairly sure. What Chicago station did the C&O use from the 1930s to Amtrak? 38.111.255.98 (talk) 18:40, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
