It served the produce/goods warehouses where the stadiums are now at, and if you look at the CAGIS maps and historicaerials.com, you can see some locos on the tracks in the vicinity of the Paul Brown Stadium as far back as... 1996. The line wasn't really abandoned until around 2000, and now has been partially dismantled.<br /><br />Quite sad.
