I was down at the North Market in Columbus, OH and noticed old spur tracks going down some of the old brick streets. I'm curious if anyone knows if these spurs are off any of the many railroads that served Columbus or are they spur tracks meant for freight from the interurban lines?

I might be wrong but they could be from either the Old New York Central Big Four or Pennsy panhandle line that both passed nearby

IIRC, it should be off the Panhandle or B&O connection down there, but I'm pretty sure Panhandle. Whatever's there hasn't been used in at least 15 years from what I saw.
