In 1804 he took over construction with his father of the first electric interurban railway into Indianapolis which had already been started by Greenwood interests This was the beginning of a vast network of traction lines in Indiana. From 1900 to 1907 the line was extended from Greenwood to Seymour and operated as the Indian-apolis-Columbus and Southern railroad until 1918. In 1913 the traction company leased its property to the old Interstate Public Service Co. for 999 years on terms of $189,000 a year, This lease was canceled in 1941 and the Irwin interests were paid approximately $2,500,000 for the property and cancellation of the lease. oe His father died in August, 1910, and his large interests evolved on
