    Before the railroads, time is simple. "Noon" is when the sun is highest in the sky, and most towns have a prominent clock on the town hall or a church. But railroad travelers changing trains find that each railroad sets its clocks differently -- and those times don't match the town clocks. In 1883, the major railroads agree to coordinate their cloc...

    Congress passes the Standard Time Act, adopting similar time zones and giving authority over the boundaries to the Interstate Commerce Commission. The law also introduces "daylight-saving time," a concept first promoted by Benjamin Franklin in 1784 but not put into widespread practice until European countries adopted it during World War I to conser...

    During World War II, daylight-saving time is again invoked by the federal government for conservation purposes, but after the war, the mandate is lifted.

    By the late 1940s, the use of day-light-saving time -- known as fast time -- has become popular in cities. Indiana is officially in the Central time zone, but some communities choose to follow fast time year-round, aligning themselves essentially with the Eastern time zone. In 1949, the Indiana Senate quietly passes a bill that would keep the state...

    A nonbinding, statewide referendum is conducted in 1956, asking general election voters their preference on Eastern versus Central time and whether to use daylight-saving time in the summer months. A slim majority favors Central time with no jump to daylight-saving time, but it is clear that Hoosiers are evenly divided on both questions. The only c...

    The General Assembly votes to make Central time the official time of the state but permit any community to switch to daylight-saving time during the summer. However, the law forbids communities from remaining on fast time during the winter months (which many communities were in the habit of doing). Gov. Harold Handley vows to enforce the law by wit...

    The General Assembly repeals the unpopular 1957 law but does not attempt to replace it, deferring instead to a new Inter-state Commerce Commission ruling moving the boundary between the Eastern and Central time zones from the Indiana-Ohio state line to the center of the state.

    Congress passes the Uniform Time Act, making daylight-saving time uniform throughout the country but permitting states to exempt themselves, provided the whole state is exempt. Congress also shifts federal authority over time zones to the Department of Transportation.

    The Department of Transportation proposes a compromise in which most of Indiana would be on Eastern Standard Time year-round, while the Gary and Evansville areas would remain on Central time and follow daylight time in the summer. The department asks Congress to amend the Uniform Time Act to permit a state to exempt some counties from daylight time...

    For more than 30 years, the system established in 1972 remained largely unchanged. Periodically, a DST bill would seem to have momentum in the Legislature only to languish in committee or be crushed by a floor vote. But in 2005 the political climate changed. Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels made DST part of his economic plan, arguing that "Indiana Time" ...
