America says "keep 'em flying." But to keep 'em flying
we must keep 'em rolling on the rails. Materials,
thousands of carloads, for planes, tanks and guns must be
rushed to production and assembly plants. Completed
armament also must be transported.
Union Pacific is powered to do the job. Twenty "Big
Boys," largest steam locomotives ever built, have recently
been added to the large fleet of other super-powered rail
giants placed in service during the past five years.
Millions of dollars also have been invested in freight cars,
new rails and property improvements. For defense as
well as industry's normal needs, Union Pacific the
Strategic Middle Route connecting East with West
supplies the demand for dependable transportation.
