wev&r san one lifealfiis
Paul Bwnyan wan used to big things.
He logged tho Upside Down Moun-
tain and dug Pugot Sound for Bobo
the Blue Ox. But he never saw a train
the liko of own, and all brand new!
Our new Southern Pacific train
has 462 diesel locomotives, 185 pas
senger cara, 46,180 freight cars (in
cluding 10,100 jointly owned refrig
erator cars for Pacific Fruit Express),
cost $388,000,000 and coupled to
gether would be 400 miles long !
That't quite a Paul Bunyan sort
of train. It represents the rolling slock
Southern Patiftc has ordered since
V-J Day. And we've invested millions
more in other facilities to serve tlie
West better, and to keep in step with
our country's defense program.
We've increased our freight car
ownership 27 in the last six years,
compared to about 4 average in
crease by tho nation's railroads as
.a whole. And, "gotting thcro tho
fustest with tho mostcsl" on our
13,700 miles of railroad (see map
below), we sot our all-time ofllciency
rocord last yonr. More efficiency
meant not only moro speed, but
moro cars for Western and Westward
shippers.
We don't tell you these things to
brag, but to show you that this ex
panding, domnnding, givo-us-morc-of-ovorything
West is something to
keep up with.
And we intend to keep on keeping
up with it, making free enterprise work
for your prosperity and ours.
