I know the IO serves Urbana viua the old NYC line that ran from Bellefontaine to Springfield but what business is on the line? I think if memory serves me there is some business in Urbana that is east of town on the old PRR Bradford line.
Do they run to Belefountain and connect with CSX there?

The line seves a grain elevator on the east side of town,also the are a few industries there. Orbis is one of the them. They use the old Erie for part of there work as wel as the old Bradford line. In Bellfountaine the line is severed about a 1/4 mile from the Indianapolis line of the old Big Four.
