We don’t usually think of the Louisville & Nashville as having served Ohio although some of its passengers trains originated and terminated at Cincinnati Union Terminal.
Some L&N transfer runs would have crossed the Ohio River to interchange with other railroads in the Queen City.
But the L&N proper ended in Newport, Kentucky, across the river from Cincinnati.
