I received this request to the website, if any one has any info please reply.

I used to visit my grandparents in Indianapolis.  I recall a very long single lane or perhaps two lane car transportation tunnel in which a big train yard was over the top.  Later in the 70’s, the tunnel was removed and a big highway overpass was constructed.    Does anyone from your website team have memories or photos of that tunnel located adjacent to Emerson Avenue and not too far from Breech Grove.
Likewise, does anyone have photos or can a photo be taken of the Subway Street concrete train bridge very near the Beech Grove Amtrak repair yard and grounds?

Finally,
Are there any photos of the three train concrete bridges on Emerson Avenue that I believe those bridges were side stops to a former round about or round house but I am not sure about that.   I know the bridges are still there.
