Railroad Presentation

I will give a Power Point presentation on the Railroads of Madison County Indiana on Sunday July 19 at 2 PM at the History Center at 11 W 11th Street in Anderson Indiana (that's downtown). The presentation will cover the railroads that ran through the county (not the electric lines) and not just scenes in the county. We will cover NYC, PRR, CI, NKP, PC, Conrail and the CSX and NS with emphasis on the older rail lines.

Afterward, the train rooms will be open for anyone who wishes to stay and look over the model railroads we have built and the railroad information that we have accumulated. There is no charge for entrance to the History Center and parking is available on the street and in the parking lot across the street.

The History Center is funded by individual donations and membership and receives no other funding.
