Etna
(East Ironton)		 This was the location of the old "Big Etna Furnace." This location was also served by the Scioto Valley RR and The Ironton and Petersburg Street Railway/Ohio Valley Electric Railway. Most likely it was named "Petersburg" before the N&W merged with the Scioto Valley in 1896.

Iron Rock Iron Rock was just west of Hanging Rock and is shown on the 1887 Lawrence County Atlas.
Ironton The C&O passenger and freight stations were adjacent to each other on a double-track spur that ended at the freight station. This was located on the southeast side of Railroad Street between North 2nd and North Front Streets. The original stations were torn down sometime between 1910-1915 and then the DT&I freight station was constructed at this location (see listing below). Both the C&O and DT&I maintained offices on this block, but by 1928 all C&O facilities at this location were closed. The C&O also had a freight house on the southwest corner of Lawrence and North 2nd. For an evolution of this area and various buildings see these maps of the block from 1889, 1893, 1904, 1909, 1916, and 1928.
