NEXT TIME, TRY THE TRAIN
At long last we can see our way out of the woods. 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advance has been repealed.

Dining cars on Southern Pacific trains are now serving three meals a day
instead of two.
W ith our heavy war load easing, we will soon speed up trains and return
the lounge cars and other refinements in service that we had to discon

Meanwhile we are going full speed ahead with an ambitious program of
new streamlined trains that will be the finest the world has ever seen.
