Black and white photo image of the steamboat The Cincinnati. From the Portsmouth Daily Times, Monday April 7, 1924: "New Steamer Cincinnati Makes Trip From Pittsburgh to Queen City in 40 Hours. The Ohio river Steamer Cincinnati broke previous river records in her trip from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati, arriving here today. The boat made the trip in forty hours and averaged 20 miles an hour. The best previous time was a little more than 48 hours. The Cincinnati passed down here Sunday evening at 10 o'clock."
Colorized image of the Station. Built in 1931, the Norfolk & Western Railroad Station was located at Seventeenth (17th) and Findlay Streets. It was used for passenger trains until 1971 when they were discontinued but still housed the division offices. The building was demolished in 2004, and the Scioto County Jail is now in a structure made to look similar to the old station.
