RE: (erielack) FW: Tallmadge, Ohio

I don't know the answer to this, but I sure would love to learn more about the West End.

This question brings up a question I have on an area that I have VERY little knowledge of - the EL in Ohio and Indiana and what happened after C-day.

* I understand that CR abandoned many portions of the main on April 1, 1976 - what did they get rid of?
* What shortline carriers (e.g., Erie Western) operated the remaining sections - and what operators are still running  today?
* How much local business was there on the West End? I assume a lot of farm goods?
