Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad

The Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad (CC&C) was a nineteenth century American railroad that ran between Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio. It was chartered in 1836 but lay dormant for its first decade before its charter was revived and amended in 1845. Construction began in November 1847 and the line opened for regular business in February 1851. The CC&C absorbed a small bankrupt railroad in 1861, and in May 1868 it merged with the Bellefontaine Railway to form the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis Railway.
