Bill & Tim, The other movement that caught my eye (since I'm a Monon guy) is the traffic to Sheridan Indiana, a mere 20 miles away. I've seen waybills for short (even 10 miles and less) movements from

Mont and all, One thing I've noticed about the 1948 Monon conductor's log I'm going through is the lack of Monon boxcars in general. Plenty of gons and hoppers, but boxcars are under represented as a

Tim, I'm not familiar enough with the PRR in that area to know. According to a map I have, the Van line to Vincennes is only 15 miles south of the Monon mines at Midland IN., so it is likely there wer

Tim and all: The effect this can have on a modeled fleet is important. For example in the 1948 Monon conductor's logs I was surprised at two predominant home road car types: covered hoppers and side-d
