 There is photographic evidence that N&W passenger engines were serviced at CUT. (steam at least)

 General Custer needs an Indian Scout to help him around the Cincinnati Bad Lands. Can anyone answer a few questions about that turf ... ?

1. Who owned the "Connecting Belt Line RR" between Hopkins Ave at Norwood, and Cincinnati Union Terminal ? If it was Main Track, which Train Dispatcher controlled it ?

2. What was the furthest point west on the Cincinnati District over which the N&W Train Dispatcher had authority ?

3. How did an N&W passenger engine get from Clare to Cincinnati Union Terminal (which two points appear to be nearly ten miles apart) ? Did the engine back all the way from Clare to CUT ? Or were N&W passenger engines just serviced, turned and laid over right at CUT, without returning to Clare for service ?  (Which would have meant that N&W passenger crews reported to and were relieved at CUT ? )
