Schoepf syndicate plans Columbus and Lake Michigan line
The Schoepf syndicate controls most of Central Ohio traction and will start a 200000 dollar powerhouse at Lima or Bellefontaine to extend the Columbus and Lake Michigan line from Lima to Bellefontaine and onward via Marysville to Columbus. They eye Marysville and Plain City and may enter Columbus via the Scioto storage dam route. North Lewisburg interests push for a Bellefontaine to Marysville path to avoid Logan County hills and reduce costs.
