Today's post, from a very warm and short walkabout along the tracks, The American Seeding Machine Company.
Richmond, Indiana.Bit of background -
The Hoosier Drill Works - a company that had started in Milton, Indiana - moved to this location in Richmond in 1878 and by 1899, was the largest factory in the world devoted entirely to the manufacture of seeding machines.
Since 1878 several businesses including Hoosier Drill Company, American Seed Machine Company, International Harvester -Richmond Works and Mosey Mfg Co. have used the property.
