NKY History Hour: Yesterday and Today on the CNO & TP

From steam engines to modern locomotives, Cincinnati’s railroad has shaped the region’s economy for over a century. But what happens next? 
 
Join historian Charles Bogart for the next NKY History Hour on Tuesday, February 25, at 6:30 p.m., as he explores the fascinating evolution of the Cincinnati, New Orleans & Texas Pacific (CNO&TP) Railroad—from its 19th-century beginnings to its present-day operation under Norfolk Southern. Using historical and contemporary photographs, Bogart will take guests on a visual journey along the rail line from Ludlow to Lexington, showcasing what once was and what remains today.
