Description |
This is Don Craft Jr.'s typewritten account of a Blue Hole in La Porte County near the north edge of La Porte City, Indiana. Long ago, a train flew of the track and landed in the Blue Hole. To the dismay of those attempting to salvage the locomotive, the lake's bottom could not be found, much less the train. |
