Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 59, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 March 1915 — Big Monon Engines. [ARTICLE]

Big Monon Engines.

The monster new Monon freight engines with a hauling capacity of ,1850 tons over the steep grade between Bainbridge and Bloomington made their first trip Monday through Greencastle and attracted much attention. The Monon has purchased five of these enormous engines and they are of the latest type, all work being done by compressed air with the exception of the throttle. They are also much larger than the others, being seven feet longer. —-----
