Ramps and street trackage to Dixie Terminal Building in Cincinnati looking northbound from the end of the Suspension Bridge to Covington.
The outer tracks led to the upper floor of the Dixie Terminal, hosting both streetcars and trolley buses. The Dixie Terminal would serve until 2004 as one of the north terminii for the Green Line (later TANK).
The inner tracks led to surface trackage in Cincinnati, allowing Newport and Ft Thomas cars an alternative method to terminate in Cincinnati, serving the lower level of the Dixie Terminal. These tracks were no longer needed after the lines in Newport and Ft Thomas were converted to bus.
