Hoosier Railroad Ghosts
My purpose in these pages is to portray forgotten and surprising parts of railroad history. I won't attempt to document every piece of old or abandoned railroads, but those particularly unique, unusual, beautiful, or now so far-gone from trains that it is unbelievable trains were ever there.
