Toledo & Eastern RR
The Toledo Port Clinton & Marblehead built from Genoa to Port Clinton, OH, in 1904, and it extended to Marblehead in 1905. Cars entered Toledo on the city car line tracks. In 1912 it became the Northwestern Ohio Railway & Power Company until 1924, when it was purchased by Ohio Public Service Co. Several cut backs took place in 1925, but the line ran passenger service until July 11, 1939. Freight service continued. In 1945, OPS sold the rail line to the T&E after the line east of Clay Center was scrapped. This left 11 miles of line hauling dolomite from Clay Center to the Wheeling & Lake Erie and coal to Ryan for a Toledo Edison power plant. When the coal was shifted to water, the line was abandoned in 1958.
