Lots of Sand

[Tom Kepshire]

The Hoosier Slide sand dune was Indiana’s most famous natural landmark, The huge, barren dune stood where the NIPSCO generating station is now. The sand dune had disappeared by 1920, and NIPSCO bought the land in 1925. For more images of The Hoosier Slide and its removal, visit: http://www.monon.monon.org/bygone/hoosierslide.html

And, for the record. Not much of this sand left via Monon rails.
