The Monon yard and roundhouse were west of the tracks.

A few black & white prints purchased from photo dealer & friend Jay Williams a few years back depict the NKP at Frankfort and Indianapolis. Photographer and exact dates unknown.

Here's a link to Indianapolis's historic aerial photo archive. Goes back to 1937. I was amazed at how many yards with roundhouses were around. This if fun to see what was and what's now. Does your city have a map like this?
in the photo below. The Monon Yard is on the left and the Nickle Plate on the right.
