Another recently uploaded photo of 422 at South Hammond. An unusual location in that it is out behind and North of the Roundhouse. The hinged headlight glass is opened as well, like they just replaced the bulb perhaps. Also something I don't think I've ever seen in a Monon Steam photo.

Why in the world would the Chicago & Wabash Valley Ry. Co. still own land in Crown Point, IN in 2015? They show as the owners of a parcel at 13234 Delaware  St. with a bid of $300. Wild.

Here's an article from the May 26,1925 Indianapolis Star announcing the Monon suspending the Gosport to French Lick trains that connected with the PRR's Indy to Vincennes train in both directions at Gosport as of May 31, 1925.

I think the string has a “bee” and a “jay” next to each other. That’s why it flags it as “not allowed”.

Eric,

The last 11 digits in the forbidden URL are i-qNWG[not allowed]S/A.  Hope that helps folks construct the entire URL for the Monon #432.

I just realized the text string on the second photo link is a verboten combination. If you click on the top link and "right arrow" on their site, you'll see the second photo.
