N&W/Scioto Valley Question

[NW Mailing List]

Whit:
 
There seems to be some gaps in the Scioto Time Tables in
the 1927-29 era, so I wasn't able to determine if any
temporary connection had been made with N&W prior
to completion of C&ON to Columbus.  Here are a few
more items:
 
1.  The tank at Cromley was taken out of service some
     time between April, 1927 and January, 1929.
 
2.  If I've converted the valuation stations correctly, the
     Cromley tank was 3,210 feet timetable east of  the
     Little Walnut Creek trestle.
 
3.  In 1901 Cromley had a 2500 ft. passing siding,
     extended to 6,000 ft. by 1907.
 
4.  The Cromley operator was gone by 1908, but by May, 1910
     there were operators 24/7 because this was the  east end
     of double track from Columbus.
 
5.  Continuous operators gone by October, 1910 because
     double track had been extended to Hagarty.
 
6.   Dorney - built in 1910 by Link Belt co. for a  contract
      price of $45,823.  Had been shown on  ICC valuation
      reports as Hayesville,  but that name  was lined 
      through and Dorney added.  Can't say if  any
      improvements had been made after about  1919.
