"The Pennsylvania Railroad in Indiana captures the history of the Pennsy and its Indiana predecessor lines. Here we meet its famous passenger trains, the empire-builders who put down track later acquired by the Pennsy, its impact upon the state's economy, the railroad's contributions to Allied victory in World War II, and the postwar decline which led to its merger into Penn Central.
Photographs, advertising and promotional materials, and detailed maps resurrect its speedy passenger trains and heavy-tonnage freights, and show how it earned its slogan: "The Standard Railroad of the World.""--BOOK JACKET.
