National Railway Historical Society awards grant for rare Indiana interurban car

Electrify 429, a campaign to revive one of Indiana’s last electric interurban cars, has received a $4,255 grant from the National Railway Historical Society’s Heritage Grant program. The award is made with support from the NRHS Indianapolis Chapter, and is one of 21 national grants awarded from the NRHS convention in Los Angeles, California. The organization is actively fundraising a $1,000 match to coincide with $1,100 in funds already raised for the grant project.
