| MUNCIE AND WESTERN POWER AT THE BALL GLASS JAR COMPANY SOUTH OF DOWNTOWN MUNCIE. MWR CONNECTED WITH THE C&O ON THE EAST END, THE NICKEL PLATE ON THE WEST END AND THE NEW YORK CENTRAL TO THE NORTH. THIS EXHIBITION OF POWER WAS ARRANGED BY THE NICKEL PLATE HISTORICAL AND TECHNICAL SOCIETY AS PART OF THE 1990 CONVENTION HELD IN MUNCIE THAT YEAR (WHICH I ATTENDED AS A MEMBER) #10 IS NOW AT THE WHITEWATER VALLEY RAILROAD IN CONNERSVILLE AND The 65Tonner works at Shideler Grain just north of Muncie, it also got a new paint job in "close to Ball baby blue" as they could get. BOTH APPEAR FRESHLY PAINTED FOR THIS OUTING AND BOTH WERE OPERATIONAL..edited for correction. Thanks, see comment #1 |
