Reference
Historical Context
The Vernon, Greensburg and Rushville was incorporated on July 11, 1879, under the general laws of Indiana, for the purpose of constructing, owning and operating a railroad extending from Vernon to Rushville, Indiana.
Shortly after the organization of the company, the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Chicago Railway Company acquired control of it and on July 1, 1881, began the sole operation of its property. It continued in possession of the property until June 30, 1889, the date of demise of the Cincinnati, Indianpolis, St. Louis and Chicago Railway Company. When the Big Four was organized it suceeded to the interests of the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Chicago Railway Company and began the sole operation of the property of the Vernon, Greensburg and Rushville and continued to do so to date of valuation.
The 45-mile line stopped in a number of towns including Milroy, Williamstown, Sandusky, Horace, Letts Corner, Westport, Harper and Brewersville.
