Monon shops Turn Out a Beautiful Car.

The car builders at the Monon shops have just turned out one of the dining cars that has ever traveled over steel rails in Indiana. It is as fine as any ever, turned out of the famous Pullman shops and was put in service last Sunday. At Chicago and Louisville it attracted an unusual amount of attention. The car builders at the shope have worked three months on the dining palace and it is a piece of master art. It has steel sides, is seventy-five feet long and weighs 137,000 pounds. The dining room will accommodate thirty persons, and the kitchen is exceptionally large. The interior is finished in mahogany.—Lafayette Journal.
