Looking for some information about this line. I know there were still two passenger trains between Cinci and Memphis during the summer of 1965, but it was clearly freight-only by late 1968. When was passenger service discontinued on this line? As well, when was the line abandoned and pulled up? Do any segments survive?

Many thanks for your help!

cheers,
Ori
