Interurban No. 429 has received a $40,000 Heritage Support Grant provided by the Indiana Historical Society and made possible by Lilly Endowment, Inc. The grant project will allow the car to move and stop under its own power for the first time since 1940, marking a significant achievement on the journey to establishing the state’s only electric heritage railroad. The organization is raising $6,000 for a 15 percent match in new fundraising as part of the grant, amplifying donor impact by more than six-fold.
