It was a proud symbol of Hoosier railroading, particularly its elegant trains between Indianapolis and Chicago. Many railroads served Indiana, but the Monon was Indiana's own. If you wanted to travel from Delphi to Broad Ripple, or from Gosport to Smithville, you took the Monon. The self-proclaimed "Hoosier Line" celebrated its heritage by naming its flagship passenger train The Hoosier, featuring Indiana cooking in the dining cars, and offering homespun service.
Book Synopsis The Monon Railroad in Southern Indiana by : David E. Longest
Download or read book The Monon Railroad in Southern Indiana written by David E. Longest and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1847, James Brooks met with six associates in Providence to forever change the face of transportation in Indiana. The New Albany and Salem Rail Road Company was born as a result of this historic meeting. Today this railroad, most often called the Monon, is only a memory of a time when trains streaked across the hills and farmland of southern Indiana. The Monon Railroad in Southern Indiana examines the real purpose of railroads as movers of people and the products they devoted their lives to producing and focuses on areas from New Albany to Bloomington. It identifies the only two counties in Indiana that were a part of the Salem limestone district and gives a glimpse of how the stone was removed from the earth and eventually formed into some of the nation's most beloved buildings and structures. It also takes a look at the history of several lumber-based industries and the famed products that they manufactured. New Albany was once known across America as a key producer of hardwood plywood, used in custom cabinetry, and the Showers Brothers Furniture Company of Bloomington was once the largest manufacturer of furniture in America. This book talks about the industries that created the cities and towns that many Hoosiers called home.

Download or read book Monon Route written by George Hilton and published by Heimburger House Publishing Company. This book was released on 1996-10-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Monon, the shortest line between Indianapolis and Chicago, has a rich history that is captured in this release from Heimburger House Publishing Company. This 8½" x 11" 323-page hardbound book is full of informative text and more than 400 captivating black and white photos, maps, drawings and illustrations. A locomotive roster, bibliography and index also highlight this excellent resource. Though it was originally envisioned as a facility for interchange with steam boats at New Albany on the Ohio River and at Michigan City on Lake Michigan, the railroad’s principal function proved to be northbound freight haulage from southern rail connections at Louisville. From its early origins in 1847, the Monon had a difficult time due to its poor physical plant when compared to other railroads of the day. In addition, a mysterious stockholder’s coup in 1890 prevented it from reaching the coal fields of eastern Kentucky, and the possibility of becoming an important regional coal hauler never materialized. It subsequently became dependent on its connection at Louisville. In 1946, these controlling, southern connections ended after a long period of stagnancy. At that time, one of the most able and colorful of modern railroad men, John W. Barriger III, became the Monon’s president. During his leadership, the railroad was dieselized, its passenger trains became streamlined and attempts were made to upgrade the physical plant. These improvements helped the Monon survive the difficult postwar period until it merged into the Louisville & Nashville in 1971. The Monon’s pioneer history, its high quality of passenger service, and its long association with higher education in Indiana are all combined in this exceptional volume of enthusiast interest.
