No longer is there a backlog of veterans waiting for transportation to their homes. The peak movement seems to be definitely over. We want to sincereiy thank all the civilians who refrained from traveling to make room for these men. And we want to point out that now some space is available on some Southern Pacific trains for you who wish to travel. In other words, we can say "Next time, try the train”, but as yet we can’t say it very loud. There is now quite a bit of space available in coaches and chair cars. Sleeping car space is tighter in comparison, but considerably more plentiful than it was, especially on certain trains. Please call us if you’re planning a trip anywhere. We’ll do our best to get you the reservations you want. No tim e lim it on res e rv a tio n * On and after March 15. you can make reservations as far in advance as you wish. The ODT order requiring you to make them no more than 14 days in advance has been repealed.
