This load grew to unprecedented size when war came. Our Pacific outposts had to be reinforced . . . men and supplies rushed to convoys ...the West Coast made strong against possible invasion. So day and night the troop trains and the war freights rolledl To Southern Pacific, western pioneer with more mile of line than any other U. S. carrier, was entrusted great responsibility. National security .required swift, mas sive concentration of military strength in the Westt S. P.'s transcontinental lines converge at West Coast ports where U. S. striking power is massed for action in . the Pacific. . Along our extensive network of rails, np and down the Pacific Coast, a stepped-up production of war materials is flowing to all war theaters. Daily since Pearl Harbor tho pressure of war has mounted on the railroad. In 1930 TO 1941 through years of depression and low earnings we had spent more than 195 million dollars for new equipment, additions and improvements. In the two-year period before Pearl Harbor, we ordered -64 million dollars worth of cars and locomotives. But no foresight could maktfus fully equal to the war load. Some of our locomotives were still undelivered, We needed more. Other U. S. railroads recognized the among the Railroads nation's need to make full use of S. P.'s strategic west ern track. In this emergency, a number of our brother railroads agreed to rent us locomotives. One of our competitors furnished ns with six locomo tives. During one period in 1942 a total of twenty-seven locomotives from other lines saw service with S. P. This "lend-leased" equipment, added to our own. helped keep the tear trains rolling over S. P. tracks at a record clip. (But continuing shortages of manpower and equipment have forced some reductions in our service to the public) In our turn, of course, we are doing all we can to cooperate with other lines. ToDAT THE lArutOABS are applying the "lend-lease1' spirit to many wartime operating and traffic problems. If another road is better able to handle a certain joba we turn it over to them (and they get the revenue in volved) . And other roads divert traffic to ns when they are hard-pressed. Our country needs its railroads now. It will need them always. For when the "chips are down" there's no trans portation so sure and capable as the railroad offers.' , S. P. is proud to work shoulder-to-shonlder with all the other railroads in this war. Working with this team of giants, we know we work toward Victory! A. T. MEB.C1ER, President 1?
