Book excerpt: After almost a quarter of a century, MONON: The Hoosier Line is back in print in a revised second edition featuring an enlarged and updated Epilogue, additional photographs, and a new Afterword by Frank Van Bree, President of the Monon Railroad Historical-Technical Society, Inc.MONON celebrates the history of this magnificent railroad, from itsinception in 1847 as the New Albany & Salem Rail Road and then the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago to its merger in 1970 with the L & N and beyond, with an informative text, 258 black and white illustrations, and a special colour insert, The Monon in Colour, with 17 additional photographs.For several generations Indiana shippers and travellers enjoyed anexcellent network of railroad services, in large part thanks to the Monon Railroad. 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.
