“Your SERVICE Department”
We chink this cooperation deserves recognition and we want to say
r
"thank you" . . . since Southern Pacific was primarily concerned. And
we're quite sure the many thousands of men in uniform who benefitted
too, would also like to join ys in this expression of appreciation.
Early in December we were faced with the problem of providing trans­
portation during the holidays for a very large number of men in the
armed services who were to be given holiday furloughs. Because of the
pressure of w ar traffic on our equipment... cars and locomotives ... we
knew that we could not provide transportation for all these service men
and the normal number of civilian holiday travelers too.
So we arranged a somewhat drastic and extensive program requiring
coach reservations for virtually all trains, and set aside a major portion
of both Pullman and coach space for the service men. Then we ran ad­
vertising telling people what our problem was, and why we could not
take care of everyone who would like to travel during the holidays. We
asked people not co "Try the Train".
As a result many people gave up holiday trips they very much wanted to
make. The amount of civilian travel, compared with December, 1941,
was considerably reduced and wd took care of the service men in good
shape. There was comparatively little congestion, and all essential travel
was accommodated.
So we know that people generally have cooperated ... and we give you

all a hearty "thank you.”
