The Eaton & Hamilton Railroad was sold on March 17, 1866 and reorganized on April 30th as the Cincinnati, Richmond and Chicago Railroad, under control of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Railroad, and still operating the Richmond & Miami Railroad. The CH&D outright leased the CR&C February 18, 1869. The Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, part of the Erie Railway system, leased the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Railroad, including the CR&C, on March 31, 1869.
The Cincinnati and Richmond Railroad was incorporated December 22, 1881 to continue the line south from Hamilton on its own. That line opened in 1888, running southeast to the Little Miami Railroad at Rendcomb Junction, east of Cincinnati. The CR&C and R&M were merged into the C&R on April 1, 1890.
