The second-line test was run on the station lists themselves, and the negative prints whole: the Railway Station Lists compilation for Indiana's interurban railways (SL 288) and the Central Electric Railfans' Association's record (Electric Railways of Indiana) place exactly one electric line at Osceola — the South Bend–Goshen line (South Bend and Elkhart Railway, opened Mishawaka to Elkhart 12 December 1898 on CERA's chronology; Indiana Railway Co. 1899; Chicago, South Bend & Northern Indiana 1907; Northern Indiana Railway, Inc. 1930), with Osceola a regular station at mile 10.1 and County Line a flag stop at mile 10.7. No second electric road — no Goshen-side or Elkhart-side line approaching from the east on its own rails, no branch, no belt — is listed at Osceola or in Penn Township in either compilation. The region's other electrics stand where the record puts them and none touches this ground: the same company's line west from South Bend toward Michigan City ran away from Penn Township, and the Winona Interurban's Goshen–Warsaw–Peru line ran south from Goshen, never west to Osceola. The parent fragment's silence on a second line is therefore not an omission but the record: Northern Indiana Railway is not "the other interurban" at Osceola — under its successive corporate names it is the only interurban, and the checklist's Fort Wayne–form distinction (a main electric line plus a second road) has no second term here. Interurban service on the one line ended 1 June 1934, and no electric passenger service of any company has touched the town since.
