From the early years to its closing when Penn Central came into existence, it served Indiana and surrounding territory well. And for years afterward the Norfolk and Western dispatcher for Muncie Indiana could be heard to say into the Conrail era, "The Big Four's gonna run one ahead a'ya." The photos in the book that I supplied and the text written by Maurice Lewman bring all of this to the forefront for an enjoyable reading. Maurice worked up to Engineer on the Michigan Division from 1947-1981, and then followed that with the Bee Line from 1981-1992 (NYC, PC, and CR). So sit back, relax, and prepare for an enjoyable time with this book and all that it covers of the railroad from then to now. The book is available at the Madison County Historical Society in Anderson, Indiana for $99 + $6.93 tax and $10 shipping, or give us a call at 765-683-0052 for more info.
