Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Indiana General Division. Office of General Superintendent.
The Indiana General Division was created on March 1, 1920, as a sub-unit in the Southwestern Region. It comprised that part of the Pennsylvania Railroad lying south and west of Richmond, Ind., and included the Indianapolis, Louisville, Peoria, Saint Louis and South Bend Divisions. The Peoria Division was merged into the St. Louis Division in 1923. Because traffic was much lighter on the western end of the railroad, it was soon discovered that this middle level of management was redundant, and the Indiana General Division was abolished on January 16, 1924, after which the division superintendents reported directly to the General Manager of the Southwestern Region. The chief officer of the Indiana General Division was General Superintendent W. C. Downing.
