Cozaddale Depot.jpg (220507 bytes)        Cozaddale RR Signal Sta..jpg (132833 bytes)
Cozaddale Depot                                                    

   This very rare card shows the railroad depot and community of Cozaddale, Ohio which is located to the East of Loveland, Ohio. This is stretching the boundaries of my collecting interests but I felt I had to get this real photo postcard. The 2nd card was mailed from Cozaddale in 1914. I am not sure what it shows.

   The original Glendale Station burned in 1879 and the present depot was constructed in 1880 on the same site. In the early days there was a hand-operated turntable was situated nearby for Glendale was, at that time, the terminal point of the C. H. & D.'s commuter service. Each engine had to be laboriously turned around by the engineer and crew for the return trip to Cincinnati.

   The map shows the location of the B&O Warehouse (in green) seen in the three photos on either side. The building, built in 1903-04, has been shortened and is now known as Longworth Hall. (The land originally was owned by Nicholas Longworth). It was a five story brick and steel structure with 12' ceilings and contained 219,00 square feet of space. It had 12 elevators of 8,000lb capacity with automatic fire alarms and a sprinkler system. The siding could hold 12 cars. This building was the inbound freight warehouse with the one-story building next to it being the outbound freight warehouse. On the other side of the smaller building was the Mill Street engine terminal containing a roundhouse, power plant, and coal tipple. This building, nearly a quarter mile in length, was reported to be the largest such structure in the world when built. The B&O also used five other storage warehouses in the area plus three cold storage facilities. It is now thriving with about 80 small businesses that require, or want, open loft-style offices.

   I have no idea where along the Ohio River this  Kraemer card "Close Call" happened, but since it did not cost me very much, I decided to get it. It is a nice card.

   This postcard tells about the convention that was held in Cincinnati from Oct. 3-4-5 in 1905. It seems that it was held in conjunction with the Mutual Benefit Association for some reason.
