Yeah their "mascot" is a train.

I knew the first two things, but I didnt realize boilermakers could also be
on trains. I only knew boilermakers from ships, as my uncle did that in WWII.

So in the spirit of Edith Bunker, let me say, oooOOOOooooOOH.

Now it makes sense, because I didnt think any ships docked in Indiana.

I've always like the uniqueness of many schools' mascots (i.e. Wrambling Wreck of GA Tech)...

Though Ohio St Buckeyes (a tree?) and Indiana Hoosiers (debatable origin?) is still lossed on me...

Hate schools that can't make up their minds from two mascots (Auburn Tigers, War Eagle(s))...

Like the idea of getting on the train if you're a Purdue fan...

And it helps that I HATE over-hyped, overrated ND, OSU, and Michigan...
