CSS is the nickname for the Chicago, South Shore & South Bend Realroad. The CSS&SB now handles just freight. A government agency is responsible for the passenger service. CSS bought the NKP's L&EW branch between Michigan City and Kingsbury. [Trains, November 07, 2005 10:18 AM] The route has to be through Sillwell to a spur that served the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant. An industrial park is being developed along that branch.
