Bellefontaine
Before the CCC&ST.L owned the IB&W and CC&I, both railroads had stations in Bellefontaine at the site of the latter day CCC&St.L station at W. Chillicothe and Elm St. See this map of the station area from 1887 showing both stations and a shared freight facility. There was also a hotel on the site called Mesamore's Hotel (later known as the Commercial Hotel in the 1890s). There was a CS&C station at this location as early as 1875.
Bellefontaine This station sat on West Chillicothe Avenue. See this map of the station area from 1901. The original shared IB&W and CC&I freight facility was still used for the CCC&St.L at this time. The Big 4 Restaurant was located behind the passenger station.

Notes About Existing Stations...

East Liberty (T&OC) - Area is overgrown and building in bad shape. Here is an old photo.

West Liberty (CCC&St.L) - Moved. Now Marie's Candy Store. This station was built in 1926 when the West Liberty Cut-off was constructed by the Big 4. It was originally located on Township Highway 193 at Runkle Avenue (GPS: 40.251396,-83.77102). All prior stations were located on the old main line about one mile east of the current main line on Baird Street.

Quincy (Ohio Southern) - Station may have been torn down or moved in the late 2000s. Can anyone verify its disposition?
